HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday:
Put in a structure you can live with in May. By June, more money is available, but you'll have more bills, too. Everything is possible, but moderation is required. Make big changes, and solve big problems in June. By August, you'll be ready to settle down. In November, you'll want to put in a few corrections and get rid of stuff you don't need, and in December a windfall could help you pay off old bills.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 5.
It looks as if a domestic matter will require your attention for the next couple of days. If there's something that needs fixing around your place, that could be it, but it's more likely you're just storing up provisions. Do you have a year's worth of supplies put away yet? If not, make that a priority.
Taurus (April 20-May 20); Today is a 5.
Try not to take sides in a battle between two hot-tempered people. Just keep your opinions to yourself a little while longer. They'll eventually figure it out by themselves. And, if they do it on their own, they won't blame you for making them look silly. Try not to giggle, either.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6.
Gemini (Monday 1 June) today is
It would really be neat to go on a long vacation if you could only find the money. The truth is: You do have the money, but you keep spending it. How can you hold onto more of it? It's going to take some self-discipline, but it can be done.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 6.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 6.
You and a June strongly opinionated person could butt heads today. You think you know the right answer, but you can't get a word in edgewise, and that's very frustrating. Find somebody who will listen to your ideas.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 6.
Lee (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a d.
It looks as if emotional issues are getting in the way of direct communications. Be patient and decisive with a person who's having trouble making a decision. To you it looks simple, but that's because you're being objective. The other person hasn't reached that level.
Virafo (Auff. 32–Serzt. 12): Tatkey is a 5.5-
Bachelor's degree in Business Administration.
Virginia Aug 24
You need to talk with someone who can see things from a slightly different perspective. You also could use some helpful advice from a person who's been wherever it is you’re going. Get someone with more experience to explain what you need to do next.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 5.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 6.
It looks as if there could be a bit of a hassle between you and an older woman today. This person wants to tell you what to do, and you have a little bit of resistance. Just go along with the program, and you'll be glad later that you did.
This combination adds strength and determination to just about whatever is going on. It also helps people make practical decisions. That's not a problem area for you, but these conditions might spur you to move on something you've been contemplating but haven't quite made up your mind about yet.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 7.
You'd much rather discuss philosophy to pinch pen nies. Those buy coupons and get to the store. If you really are clueless when it comes to wise shopping, get a Cancer or a Taurus to help.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 5.
Toss out stuff you don't need anymore and get in some new, better items. You and your mate need to be in this conversation together. Don't do it all by yourself or you'll throw out something the other person likes.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 5.
You need to figure out how to make something happen, and quickly. You're supposed to be the smart one, right? And what does the smart one do when faced with a problem like this? Ask another expert, of course.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 6.
A person who's been pushing you around may have a problem that you never realized. It might not have anything to do with you, by the way. You may be able to provide some comfort.

Lacrosse team whipped by Bethel, Wisconsin
The University of Kansas Women's Lacrosse Club lost both of its games last weekend in Madison, Wis., one of which was its first shutout in the club's two-year history.
Kansas fell behind early and lost to Bethel College 6-9. The club was completely outmatched by host Wisconsin, losing 0-10.
Kansas is battling Truman State for second place in the division. A win would qualify the team for the final berth in the Women's Collegiate Lacrosse League championship tournament.
The club looks to rebound this weekend at home against Missouri and Truman State, its final two games of the season.

— Kansan staff report
COLUMBIA, Mo. — Albert White, who led Missouri in scoring, rebounding and assists last season, is expected to announce tomorrow that he will skip his senior year to enter the NBA draft.
Missouri junior to skip senior season for NBA
A 6-foot-5, 238-pound forward, White averaged 18.3 points and 8.7 rebounds for a team that went 20-9 and earned its first NCAA tournament bid since 1995. Conference coaches named him to the All-Big 12 Conference first team, and the media made him a second-team choice.
White, who transferred to Missouri after his freshman season at Michigan, told Athletic Director Mike Alden last month that he was seriously considering professional basketball because of new financial responsibilities. He recently became a father.
White, 21, didn't return to Missouri when classes resumed March 29 after spring break.
White has scheduled a news conference in his hometown of Inkster, Mich.
The NBA draft is set for June 30, and non-seniors have until May 16 to declare themselves eligible.
NEW YORK — Darryl Strawberry's future depends on the results of his last drug tests to be received by the commissioner's office sometime this week.
Drug tests could decide Strawberry's future
Strawberry met Sunday with officials of the players' association, the commissioner's office and doctors, according to several sources familiar with the meeting who spoke on the condition of anonymity.
Baseball officials continue to test the outfielder twice a week as part of the aftercare program that followed his 60-day suspension in 1995 for a positive test for cocaine use. Strawberry has not tested positive for illegal drugs since then, the New York Yankees last week.
Yankees' general manager Brian Cashman said Monday that the team had not heard any new information from the commissioner's office on Strawberry, who was tested April 1.3 and again later in the week, after his arrest in Tampa, Fl., on charges of cocaine possession and solicitation.
“As of right now, he is not resuming work,” Cashman said Monday. “From the club's perspective, he's got his legal issues and personal issues to deal with. It's best for him at this particular moment to deal with that. Baseball is second right now.”
Strawberry, 37, was at the Yankees's training camp as part of the extended spring training program. He was still rehabilitating from colon cancer surgery in October.
Vikings player faces arraignment for assault
ST. PAUL, Minn. — Minnesota Vikings safety Orlando Thomas, charged with assaulting his wife, is expected to be arraigned in Louisiana on June 24.
The domestic violence charge carries a $500 fine and a six-month jail term. The charge means Thomas must comply with the NFL's violent crime policy, which includes mandatory evaluation and counseling.
He was arrested Friday night after his wife, Demetra, called the sheriff's office in Acadia Parish, La., and said she had been assaulted. She was treated at a hospital.
The 26yearold player was born in Crowley, La., and owns a home in the town, which is 140 miles west of New Orleans.
On June 29, 1997, he was arrested in Crowley and charged with inciting a riot and disturbing the peace, the Saint Paul Pioneer Press reported. He pleaded no contest and was ordered to pay a $100 fine, court costs and do 50 hours of community service.
four-year, $11 million contract in February that includes a $2.75 million signing bonus.
Former Kentucky player gets 10 years in prison
The Vikings re-signed Thomas to a
SOMERSET, Ky. — Former Kentucky football player Jason Watts was sentenced yesterday to the maximum 10 years in prison for an alcohol-related truck crash that killed a teammate and another young man.
Commonwealth's Attorney Eddy Montgomery said that while he appreciated Watts' willingness to take responsibility, "as a prosecutor, I can't look past the fact that two people have died."
Earlier, Watts' lawyer, James Lowry, had argued that Watts' willingness to take responsibility for the deaths of his friends should merit a lighter sentence, if not probation.
Watts was immediately returned to jail. The Nov. 15 crash on U.S. 27, north of Somerset, injured Watts and killed teammate Arthur Steinmetz and Eastern Kentucky student Scott Brock.
Watts was hospitalized for a week with an arm laceration, visible yesterday when he was dressed in a blue jail jumpsuit. He was kicked off the football team and left school briefly before returning in January.
Watts, who turned 22 Monday, has been in the Pulaski County Detention Center since March 31, when he pleaded guilty to reckless homicide and volunteered to start serving time immediately.
The crash darkened Kentucky's most successful football season in years, one that climaxed with an appearance in the Jan. 1 Outback Bowl. Watts, a senior from Oviedo, Fla., played a key role in the team's success.
Watts' shoulders slumped when the judge sentenced him, and given a chance to address the court, Watts choked back tears as he said, "I want to say I'm sorry to all the people I let down."
