| Loyola boys' soccer team advances in shootout
Loyola of Los Angeles' goalkeeper John Bunkall stopped two penalty kicks and led the host Cubs to a 4-1 shootout win Wednesday against Long Beach Wilson in Southern Section Div. I wild-card action. Bunkall stopped Wilson's second and third attempts, and his teammates did the rest as the Cubs defeated the Bruins after the teams fought through four 10-minute overtime periods with the score tied at 1-1. "I just reacted and I went with my gut decision," Bunkall said. "Thank goodness our guys scored, if they didn't score it wouldn't have meant anything. It was an exciting game and hopefully we'll come out strong against Santa Margarita." The Cubs (16-5-7) travel to top-seed Santa Margarita (16-3-4) Friday for a rematch of last year's Div.

An early look at how Clinton deals with crisis
The sixth-grader, who says she was bored and wanted to buy a soda, jumped into Taylor's beat-up red 1963 Chevrolet pickup truck.
Soon after, they picked up the 15-year-old boy and drove to a liquor store, where Taylor bought a pint of Old Grand-Dad whiskey, which he mixed for the girl in a cup of Coca-Cola, according to the boy, now a 48-year-old Army veteran. (Newsday is withholding the boy's name because he was charged in the case as a juvenile offender.)

Radio & TV Talk
I'm excited about the future at this station, it's a station I listen to all the time (I'm a talk radio guy) and the crew is a blast. Good stuff, and in hindsight I'm glad things worked out the way they did, I'm really happy. And V-103/WAOK-AM are holding a combo town hall meeting later today from 6 to 8 p.m. about school violence. Frank Ski and Lorraine Jacques-White will preside. "We had been wanting to do it for awhile," Ski said. "With the recent incident at McNair High School, we figured it was a good time."

The Trauma Of Disengagement - Divorced Dads, Child Custody in Israel
Jerusalem----August 14...... In the hours to come, thousands of Israelis will be forced to leave their homes in Gaza. Whether you are for or against the Disengagement Plan in Israel - it's going to happen and many tears will be shed. But there is another "disengagement" going on in Israel every day. Not by Zionists being removed from their biblical land, but rather by fathers being torn away from their children. I was evicted from my home in Israel. I can understand what many will experience in Gaza, in Israel as they are pulled out of their living rooms, bedrooms and playrooms where they spent so much time hearing their children laugh, sing and watching them dance. Fathers are evicted from their homes in Israel every day based on false charges of violence or sexual harassment to their wives.

The 1,000-foot break in the landscape, picturesque as it is, has raised weighty questions about how this town at the elbow of Cape Cod should respond.
School Levy Policy: 60% vote requirement to pass levies likely to stay
Voters appeared reluctant to do away with the 60 percent supermajority requirement to pass school levies, according to returns Tuesday. The measure, EHJR 4204, would have amended the state Constitution so that school districts needed only a simple majority of votes to pass property-tax levies to raise money for schools. Supporters of the measure remained hopeful Tuesday night that the outcome would shift as more votes were tallied. Still, "we knew it was going to be an uphill battle," said Jerry Bender, director of the Association of Washington School Principals, who gathered with other supporters at a downtown Seattle party Tuesday. Proponents of the measure, including the Washington Education Association and Gov. Chris Gregoire, had argued the supermajority requirement for school levies is unfair and hurts public education.
