Capitol protestors: what does it mean? Protestors in the Capitol, the temple of American democracy. Streaming past police lines, pushing barricades aside, forcing their way into the building and invading nearly every sacred space save the House Chamber, where Congress had been meeting. There, they met a stout barricade assembled from furniture inside and manned by armed plainclothesmen in suits and ties. The members, including the vice president, had been led out. The protestors, when they broke a pane of glass to look in, found themselves facing cold steel muzzles, several 9 mm automatics and what looked like a .357 magnum. They did not get into the House, and the look on the one guy’s faces was, as they say, priceless. But there they were in the Senate, one sitting in the vice president’s chair on the dais. In Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s office, feet on her desk, taking selfies and helping himself to her mail. Pretty much everywhere. How did this happen? The three top congressional security officials apparently are out on the street, asking themselves that same question. What does it mean? That one might take years to answer.

It was great un - til I saw that the tube had exploded after several weeks in my refrigerator, making a mess. Now I’m reluctant to buy a tube again. What could have caused this to happen? – Diane, via email Diane, if the canner hasn’t sufficiently steril- ized the tomatoes, cans and equipment, or if you forgot to wash your hands and thoroughly clean your prep area, two things can happen: 1. Fermenting causes CO2, which can build up pressure in the tube or can, causing it to explode. 2. Botulinum bacteria can also cause CO 2 to build up, but this is very serious. An exploding tube would be the least of your problems. If you do not use up all of your tomato paste Sally Forth • Greg Howard within a week, throw it out to avoid any compli - cation that might arise. – Heloise Crossword Eugene Sheffer © 2020 King Features Syndicate Inc. • Bridge • Steve Becker

Wriggling out of the trap It is one thing for declarer to master the art of executing an endplay, but quite another matter to learn how to avoid one as a defender. Today’s deal provides an example of the type of collabo- ration sometimes needed between defenders to thwart an impending endplay. Todd the Dinosaur Patrick Roberts South reaches four hearts as shown, and West • leads the king of spades. Let’s first say that West continues with the ace and another spade, ruffed by declarer. The ace of hearts is cashed, after which South plays the A-K-Q of diamonds, dis- carding two clubs. He then ruffs the nine of dia- monds in his hand. By this time, the defense may just as well fold its tents. Declarer next leads a heart, forcing West into the lead. West must then either return a club into South’s A-Q or lead a spade, handing declar- er a ruff-and-discard. Either way, the contract is made. This unfortunate outcome can be avoided if the defenders cooperate with one another to get West off the hook. To begin with, East must signal with Zits • Jim Borgman & Jerry Scott the nine of spades at trick one to show possession of the queen. West must then see the wisdom of having his partner rather than himself on lead at trick three. Accordingly, he underleads his ace at trick two, East winning with the queen. East then asks him- self why West has gone out of his way to put him on lead. East should conclude that West would like him to shift to another suit, one West cannot safely lead himself. That suit is obviously not diamonds, so East returns a club. Against this defense, South is helpless, and he eventually loses the king of clubs as well as a heart to go down one. © 2020 King Features Syndicate Inc.
