Mosul: Iraqi forces on city's doorstep.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Troops came within hundreds of meters of Mosul on Monday evening and are now the closest they've been since launching an operation two weeks ago to wrest the city from more than two years of ISIS rule.

Experts and officials have said that entering Mosul will likely trigger the fiercest fighting seen yet in the offensive and that the battle is expected to be fought street to street or even house to house.

The plan is to squeeze ISIS fighters from different directions, commanders say. But reports that the militant group has brought thousands of civilians -- mostly women and children -- into Mosul as human shields raises serious concerns that there could be a high number of civilian casualties in the battle.

The Special Adviser of the UN Secretary-General on the Prevention of Genocide, Adama Dieng, said that he condemned "in the strongest terms" the "continued, absolute disregard for international human rights and international humanitarian law" by the terror group.

Citing the abduction and execution by ISIS of large numbers of civilians, and the use of human shields in and around Mosul, he stressed in a statement that the perpetrators of ISIS' war crimes need to be held accountable and said that existing allegations of these crimes are sufficient to be acted upon immediately.

He added that the Iraqi government has an obligation to stamp out retaliatory violence by Iraqi troops or associated militias.

"Any kind of retaliatory violence against individuals on the basis of their membership of a specific group is unacceptable and will undermine the legitimate calls of these communities for their own protection and for their long-standing grievances to be addressed."

Meanwhile, Turkey moved tanks and bulldozers from Ankara to southeastern cities near the Iraqi border, its closest position to Mosul, according to a statement from the Turkish military.

Turkey's defense minister said they were being used to fight against terror, the state-run Anadolu news agency reported.

In striking distance

Iraqi forces surrounded the ISIS-held village of Gogjali on Mosul's eastern outskirts Tuesday and by late afternoon had taken control of the village, Maj. Gen. Maan al-Saadi, commander of Iraqi counter-terrorism special forces, told CNN. A commander on the ground said troops are working to clear any explosives ISIS may have left behind in Gogjali.

The village is the last populated area before eastern Mosul and freeing Gogjali opens the path for forces to enter the larger city.

Iraqi troops took control of a state TV building on the eastern edge of Mosul and raised the Iraqi flag over it, according to a statement released by Iraq's joint military commands.

An officer with the country's Counter-Terrorism Force told CNN that progress had been slowed by the large number of improvised explosive devices (IEDs) and mines planted by ISIS. He was speaking on condition of anonymity because he is not authorized to talk with the media.

Progress was also slowed by the presence of as many as 20,000 civilians who are still in Gogjali, who are essentially being used as human shields by ISIS, according to Saadi.

Other officers told CNN that ISIS fighters had blocked the main road between the village and Mosul with boulders and that bulldozers were needed to clear them. The road is also laced with IEDs and mines, they said.

CNN correspondents near Gogjali said earlier Tuesday that they could see smoke rising on Mosul's perimeter from oil trenches being set on fire to obscure warplanes from striking ISIS targets and deter troops from entering.

Troops are now in clear striking distance of the city and they appear to have begun an assault on Mosul from outside.

Prime Minister to ISIS: 'Surrender or die'

On Monday night, Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi gave the estimated 5,000 ISIS militants holed up in Mosul a chilling warning as troops approached the city's doorstep.

"There is no way to escape, either surrender or die," he told a reporter for state-run Iraqiya TV at the Qayyara airbase south of Mosul.

We will "cut the head (off) the snake," he said.

Abadi urged Mosul's beleaguered residents, who have suffered under ISIS rule since June 2014, to stay indoors during the battle. He also said they should resist ISIS-propogated rumors and do what they can to prevent ISIS from destroying the city's infrastructure.

He also noted that for the first time, Iraqi forces would be fighting side by side with Kurdish Peshmerga troops and urged politicians to "leave (their) political differences aside."

The coalition of around 100,000 people in the Mosul offensive is an extraordinary union of ethnic and religious groups that have long stood on opposing sides in Iraq's history.

Among them are Kurdish groups, including the Peshmerga, and Shia and Christian paramilitary groups.

The battle for Mosul is seen as one of the most significant in the fight against ISIS. The city is the terror group's Iraqi stronghold and is considered the jewel of its self-proclaimed caliphate.

While vote preferences have held essentially steady, she's now a slim point behind Donald Trump - a first since May - in the latest ABC News/Washington Post tracking poll, produced for ABC by Langer Research Associates.

In the latest results, 46 percent of likely voters support Trump, and 45 percent are for Clinton. With the data taken to a decimal place for illustrative purposes, a mere 0.7 of a percentage point divides them.

Third-party candidate Gary Johnson has 3 percent, a new low; Jill Stein, 2 percent.

See PDF with full results here.

Trump now leads Clinton by 8 points in the share of voters who are very enthusiastic about their choice as of Friday. But compared with past elections, it's low for both of them - 53 percent for Trump, 45 percent for Clinton.

Strong enthusiasm for Clinton has lost 7 points since the start of tracking, especially Friday through Sunday. This is possibly an effect of the renewed controversy over her use of a private email server while secretary of state. Trump's strong enthusiasm has held steady in tracking, which started Oct. 20.

Close

The 1 point Clinton-Trump race is well within the survey's margin of sampling error. Combining the last seven nights - across which results have been very stable - the results flip to 46 percent Clinton, 45 percent Trump, with a 0.4 point gap. Again, it is not a significant difference.

Either way, the results are exceedingly close. Trump's 1 point lead is a noteworthy result; he has led Clinton just once before, up 2 points in late May (among registered voters in a two-way test), after he clinched the GOP nomination while Clinton was still in a duel with Bernie Sanders in the Democratic race.

Although the election is close at this point, vote preference results a week out are not necessarily predictive of the final result. Mitt Romney was up 1 versus Barack Obama in comparable tracking poll results in 2012, for example, and John Kerry was ahead by 1 against George Bush a week out in 2004.

Red/Blue

Another look at the data divides the last seven nights of tracking results into red, blue and toss-up states, as designated by the ABC News Political Unit. The results:

* In states considered to be strongly for Trump or leaning toward him (with a total of 180 Electoral College votes), he leads Clinton by a broad 60 to 34 percent.

* In blue states (with 278 electoral votes), Clinton leads 54 to 37 percent.

* In the five ABC-designated toss-up states (with 80 electoral votes) - Arizona, Florida, North Carolina, Ohio and Utah - voters split 41 percent Clinton to 48 percent Trump. That's not a significant difference, given the 5.5 point error margin at this sample size.

Early Birds

Clinton's support rests in part on early voting: A fifth of those identified as likely voters (21 percent) say they have already voted. While the sample isn't large (thus an error margin of +/-7 percentage points), they divide 55 percent for Clinton, 39 for Trump.

That said, early voting estimates can change, given state rules, turnout and sampling variability. Early voting estimates in the 2012 ABC/Post tracking poll ranged from up 17 for Obama to up 4 for Romney in four-night averages, settling at up 3 for Obama.

The latest results, while steady for seven nights, reflect a sharp turnaround from a large Clinton lead in the first four nights of tracking, which were a particularly difficult news cycle for Trump.

Among other factors, there has been consolidation for Trump among Republicans and GOP-leaning independents (86 percent now back him, up from 80 percent). He has also seen improvement among pure independents (i.e., those who don't lean toward either party), up from an even split to a large Trump advantage, 25 percent Clinton to 54 percent Trump, across the past seven nights (combined for a larger samples size). Seventeen percent of pure independents pick someone else.

Among Democrats and Democratic leaners, meanwhile, Trump's support has gone from 5 to 9 percent - a slight change, but a statistically significant one. Clinton's support has been essentially steady.

Party ID

The race is close even though self-identified Democrats outnumber Republicans among likely voters by 10 points, 38 to 28 percent. There are three reasons:

One, this narrows to a 5 point gap, 48 to 43 percent, when independents who lean toward one party or the other are included.

The second is Trump's advantage among pure independents, as noted - even though they account for just 7 percent of likely voters.

And the third is that Trump wins 9 percent of Democrats and Democratic leaners, while Clinton is supported by 6 percent of Republicans and those who lean toward the GOP - another slight difference and not statistically significant.

But in contests this close, small differences add up.

Vote preference results are essentially identical in 23 likely voter models produced for diagnostic purposes, with turnout estimates ranging from 43 to 81 percent of the voting-age population. Seventeen of the models produce a 46 percent Trump, 45 percent Clinton race, as does the average of all 23.

Methodology

This ABC News/Washington Post poll was conducted by landline and cellular telephone Oct. 27 to 30, 2016, in English and Spanish, among a random national sample of 1,128 likely voters. Results have a margin of sampling error of 3 points, including the design effect. Partisan divisions are 38-28-29 percent, Democrats-Republicans-independents.

Questions 5a and 5b were asked Oct. 28 to 30 among 388 and 397 Clinton and Trump supporters, respectively; they both have 5.5 point error margins.

The survey was produced for ABC News by Langer Research Associates of New York City, with sampling, data collection and tabulation by Abt-SRBI of New York City. See details on the survey's methodology here.

CLEVELAND - The Cleveland Indians can feel it, sense it, even smell it, and now they're allowing themselves to wrap their minds around the idea.

Just one more victory, and they can finally wipe away 68 years of dust on their mantel to make room for that coveted World Series trophy.

Their frenzied fan base is poised to erupt Tuesday (8:08 p.m. ET, Fox) at Progressive Field, celebrating not only an anticipated game-time temperature of 70 degrees for Game 6 of the World Series but also witnessing the first Cleveland sports team to clinch a championship at home since 1964.

When the Cleveland Cavaliers earned their first NBA title in June, they won Game 7 in Oakland against the Golden State Warriors.

There were the 1964 Cleveland Browns, knocking off the Baltimore Colts to win the NFL championship at Cleveland Municipal Stadium, before the Super Bowl was born.

There were the 1920 Cleveland Indians, who won Game 7 on Oct.12 against the Brooklyn Robins at Dunn Field.

And here are the 2016 Indians, daring to go where none of their ancestors has gone in two generations.

"It's incredible to even think about," Cleveland second baseman Jason Kipnis says. "You start to think about it, as it gets this close, and you get chills.

"It will hopefully be rushed into a bottle of emotions if it happens, but it's something you don't want to think about too far ahead, especially because they have (Jake) Arrieta and (Kyle) Hendricks over there.

"So we have a tall task ahead of us."

Yet if the Indians listened to the noise out there, you would never know they're the ones who are up 3-2 in the World Series. You would dismiss the idea that their next two pitchers, Josh Tomlin in Game 6 and, if necessary, Corey Kluber in Game 7, have gone 6-1 with a 1.18 ERA in this postseason.

You'd forget that their vaunted bullpen is so well-rested that you could see Andrew Miller and Cody Allen combining to pitch five innings in Game 6, if needed.

And you'd ignore the fact that only three teams in World Series history have recovered from a 3-1 deficit by winning the final two games on the road, and that the Indians are 58-29 at home this season.

"We're the underdogs to everybody else but ourselves in this clubhouse," Indians first baseman Mike Napoli says. "We never looked at it like we're the underdogs. We've been in first place for 100-some games. And we won the AL Central. It's not like we snuck in anywhere.

"We're good."

Awfully, awfully good.

The Indians have won 10 of 13 games in this postseason, knocking off the heavily favored Boston Red Sox and the Toronto Blue Jays to reach the World Series, only for everyone to believe the Series was over when it headed to Wrigley Field tied 1-1.

"Nobody gave us a chance to get out of Chicago," Napoli said. "We kept hearing, 'Oh, you're not going to be able to get out of Chicago,' and this and that. Well, we're up 3-2, at home, where we play good.

"So it's not us against the world, like everybody's saying. Everybody can pick who they want and say who they think is better, but we're confident in each other. We know what we can do.

"You'll see."

So go ahead, the Indians say, keep on showering the Cubs with all the hype. Let 'em watch all the Rocky movies they want, blaring Eye of the Tiger as their walk-up music or even feigning a few punches after crucial base hits.

While Cubs manager Joe Maddon implored his team to wear Halloween costumes Monday on their early-evening flight to Cleveland, the Indians are the ones who should be wearing their Rocky Balboa outfits trick-or-treating.

Let's see, they have the ninth-smallest payroll in baseball, including a starting rotation that earned a combined $11.7 million - less than half of Cubs ace Jon Lester's salary. They have been ravaged by injuries, leaving them without outfielder Michael Brantley for all of 11 games; Carlos Carrasco, their No. 2 starter, whose season ended Sept. 17 with a broken hand; and No. 3 starter Danny Salazar, who has pitched one inning this postseason without a start since Sept. 9. And performance-enhancing drug suspensions ended outfielder Marlon Byrd's season, and career, and kept Abraham Almonte ineligible for the playoff roster.

"I haven't watched a game of baseball since my (June 1) suspension, except for the Indians games," Byrd told USA TODAY Sports. "I couldn't be happier for those guys. It's such a great organization. Believe me, it's hard to have all 25 guys like each other, or someone not liking someone on the staff or in the front office, but it's unbelievable there. That camaraderie is real. I've never seen anything like it.

"I felt so bad when my suspension happened, but you look at what those guys are doing now, and they're playing better without me. To see what they're doing now, it's a relief.

"I can't wait to see that crowd react when they win. That city deserves it."

Certainly, the Indians realize after nearly 70 years it won't be easy. These are the Cubs. They won 103 regular-season games. They knocked off the beasts of the NL West, the San Francisco Giants and Los Angeles Dodgers, in the playoffs. And now, by being able to use the DH at Progressive Field, they're back at full strength.

Kyle Schwarber, who has not been medically cleared to play the field, was limited to one plate appearance in three games at Wrigley. He'll be their DH at Progressive Field, back hitting in the middle of their lineup.

"It was almost an advantage for us to play there," said Kipnis, whose team won two of three games at Wrigley. "When you put him back at DH, it makes a difference. He's a good hitter, a great hitter actually."

The American League rules have never looked more beautiful to Maddon and the Cubs.

"I'm not a really big fan of the DH as much as I am right now," Maddon said. "And I've never wanted to play Game 7 of a World Series as much as I want to right now, either. It's up to us to take it to that seventh game, then you're really going to have a classic that everybody will remember.

"So I kind of like the way all of this is trending."

The Indians, of course, have a fan base in such a frenzy that 67,000 fans showed up at Progressive Field to watch Games 3, 4 and 5 while the Indians were at Wrigley Field.

"Hopefully we give them a chance to see something special," says Miller, acquired by the Indians in July from the New York Yankees. "Everyone remembers what this town was like when the Cavs won. When we came into town right after they won, it seemed like 80% of the people were still wearing Cavs gear. Every time you hopped into a cab or took an Uber, they talked about the parade. Every time you bumped into somebody at Starbucks, they were talking about the championship.

"We know this city is excited, and if we just go out and do our job, they're going to have a blast."

Six killed, ten injured in Baltimore crash involving school bus, transit bus

BALTIMORE, Md. (AP) -

2:15 p.m.

Federal records show the transportation company that was operating a school bus involved in a fatal wreck in Baltimore had no violations or other crashes reported over a recent two-year span.

Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration records show four inspections for AA Affordable Transportation over two years beginning in September 2014. The records show the company had 17 school buses and 17 drivers.

A representative of the company declined to talk with reporters outside its Baltimore office Tuesday, but said he might be able to comment later.

Baltimore City Public Schools says the bus involved in the accident provided curb-to-curb transportation to 18 elementary school students. The statement says such service generally is provided to students with special needs, homeless students or students who need special services.

No children were on the bus when it rear-ended a car, then ricocheted off a roadside pillar into an oncoming commuter bus. The driver was among six people killed in the wreck.

___

1:40 p.m.

Federal investigators have arrived in Baltimore to probe a crash involving a school bus and a commuter bus that killed six people and injured 10.

National Transportation Safety Board spokesman Keith Holloway said investigators with the highway team have begun examining the vehicles involved and documenting the scene.

Police say a school bus rear-ended a car, struck a roadside pillar and then veered into the oncoming Maryland Transit Administration bus, destroying much of the driver's side.

Officials say the school bus driver and five people on the MTA bus were killed. No children were on the school bus at the time.

___

1:10 p.m.

School officials say the school bus involved in a fatal crash was contracted from AA Affordable Transportation, a company based in Baltimore.

School officials said in a statement Tuesday that the bus provided service to 18 elementary school students, but beginning Wednesday the students will be transported by a bus owned by the city school system. No students or other passengers were on the school bus at the time.

Officials say these students receive curb-to-curb transportation from their homes to school. This service is provided to students with special needs, students who are homeless and students who receive specialized services such as English for Speakers of Other Languages.

Police say six people, including the school bus driver, were killed and 10 people, including the bus attendant, were injured when the school bus rear ended a car and hit a Maryland Transit Administration bus.

___

12:15 p.m.

The trauma chief at a hospital where five people were taken after two buses collided in Baltimore says the patients' injuries are typical for motor vehicle accidents, including spinal column and facial injuries.

Dr. Deborah Stein told a news conference Tuesday that one of the five patients is in critical condition, three are stable and one who was initially stable has been downgraded to serious condition. One patient is an adult male, and four are women from their mid-20s to mid-40s.

Stein says at least one will need surgery and another will likely be discharged soon.

She says it was "all hands on deck" at the University of Maryland R Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center. The crash happened near a shift change, but not a single overnight worker left the building. She calls it "really quite extraordinary."

___

Noon

One of the first people at the scene of Tuesday morning's fatal bus crash was a passing motorist named Matthew Feldman, who told WJZ-TV that he and another man pulled up and tried to help people before emergency responders arrived.

Feldman says the drivers of both the school bus and the Maryland Transit Administration bus appeared to be in very bad shape. (Police have confirmed that the school bus driver was killed, but have not identified any of the dead or injured on the commuter bus.)

Feldman said he and the other man tried to pull glass off of a woman pinned by the door of the MTA bus, and could hear people screaming. He said the driver's side of the MTA bus was a mess of twisted metal with people's arms and legs sticking out.

___

11:30 a.m.

Federal investigators are headed to Baltimore to probe a crash involving a school bus and a commuter bus that killed six people and injured ten.

Police spokesman T.J. Smith says the school bus rear ended a car, struck the entrance to a cemetery and then veered into oncoming traffic, hitting the Maryland Transit Administration bus near the driver's seat and raking down the side.

National Transportation Safety Board spokesman Keith Holloway said by telephone Tuesday that the highway team is looking into this crash because it involves two large vehicles, and because the NTSB has looked at school bus and transit safety in the past.

___

9:45 a.m.

Police say at least six people are dead and 10 more are hurt after a school bus crashed into side of a commuter bus in southwest Baltimore.

Baltimore police spokesman T.J. Smith told a news conference the school bus rear ended a car Tuesday morning, then struck a pillar at a cemetery and veered into oncoming traffic, hitting the Maryland Transit Administration bus on the driver's side.

Smith says the school bus driver is dead. He says the only other person on that bus was an aide, who survived.

Baltimore Fire Chief Niles Ford says firefighters are still working their way through the interior of the commuter bus, looking for victims.

----

9:15 a.m.

Police say a school bus and a commuter bus crashed in Baltimore, killing six people.

Baltimore Police tweeted that no children were aboard the school bus that crashed early Tuesday morning.

Baltimore public schools spokeswoman Anne Fullerton says no students are among the fatalities.

University of Maryland Medical Center spokeswoman Lisa Clough says the hospital received one patient in critical condition and four others in fair condition.

Video from above the scene while it was still dark shows the crumpled front of a yellow school bus smashed into the side of a Maryland Transit Administration bus. The driver's side of the MTA bus is ripped off with debris spilling onto the road.

There was no immediate word on what caused the crash.

Researchers working to discover more about how smoke impacts people's health have developed an artificial human lung "airway on a chip" and a smoking robot to carry out more accurate tests.

The work will help further our understanding of conditions like Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), an irreversible inflammatory disease of the lung's small airways, and will aid with investigations into newer smoking-related trends like vaping.
HARVARD'S 3D-PRINTED HEART ON A CHIP HOPES TO MAKE DRUG TESTING SAFER
"It's like a Gatling gun, a round turret with 10-12 cigarettes mounted in it," is how Dr. Donald Ingber, director of the Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering at Harvard University, described the cigarette-smoking bot to Digital Trends. "We then use an automated car cigarette lighter to touch the cigarette to light it. The machine puffs the cigarette as a human would. You can tune its puffing frequency, intensity and intervals -- and then observe what happens as the smoke is fed from the machine and passed through the airspace of the small airway chip."

The "lung airway chip" technology is just the latest in a series of "organs-on-chips" -- microengineered cell culture devices that are sweeping the medical research world. These artificial human organs have previously included kidneys, intestines, lungs and placentas, and allow approximations of specific organs to be created for testing without requiring potentially harmful studies on living animals or people.
AS TECH TRICKLES IN, MEDICINE IS ABOUT TO HIT WARP SPEED
In the case of the airway-on-a-chip, a hollow microchannel is lined with living human bronchiolar epithelium, taken from either healthy individuals or patients with COPD. As a press release about the news states: "Cell culture medium is continually flowed through a parallel running channel separated from the first by a porous membrane to support the epithelium for up to four weeks, and to create a so-called air-liquid interface similar to that present in [the] actual lung airway."

While it's no secret that smoking is bad for you, the new research can help make more accurate, personalized evaluations about just how bad it is.

"One of the biggest advances is that you can more accurately answer the question of what smoke does to a particular patient," Dr. Ingber continued. "We can use the same patient's chips and see what happens before and after smoke exposure. Previously, clinical studies on smoke exposure simply analyzed a certain number of patients who had a history of smoking and an equal number who didn't. The problem with this is that you're dealing with different people with their own histories, home environments, work environments, and so on. This gives us a much more direct idea about cause and effect."

Researchers working to discover more about how smoke impacts people's health have developed an artificial human lung "airway on a chip" and a smoking robot to carry out more accurate tests. The work will help further our understanding of conditions like Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), an irreversible inflammatory disease of the lung's small airways, and will aid with investigations into newer smoking-related trends like vaping.
