HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday:
You and your buddies can accomplish marvelous things this year, some things so wonderful that even you don't believe it now. Go for a goal you share with your friends, even if all you have right now is faith. February is full of inspiration, and March is pretty good about money. To get the advantage, check the day's rating: 10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 7.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 7. You could use an advanced philosophical concept to solve a puzzle today. It might happen by accident, and that's part of the trick. It's as if you let go on purpose so that a miracle can occur, and it does.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 5.
It looks as if a friend of yours is clashing with an older person. It's one of those lose-lose situations. Your friend is feeling beat up, and the other person is feeling let down. You can see this situation more objectively than either of them, so coaching is permissible.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6.
It looks as if somebody could get hurt feelings today, and it's one of those tragic situations that might have been avoided if people were a little more careful about what they said. Choose your words carefully. Don't make fun of anyone else, for example.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 5.
A sensitive friend of yours could get her feelings hurt today. You're probably one of the people she'll come to if that happens. Advise your friend that she's luckier than she realizes. As confronting situation could point out an area that needs to be avoided, or a lesson to be learned.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22: Today is a 6.
The spotlight is on love and partnerships, two of your favorite topics. They may not be going all that smoothly, however. What you want and what your partner insists upon may be quite different. Who's going to give in first? Well, in this particular situation, it looks as if that honor falls to you.
Virao (Aua. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 5.
Virginia Aug. 15 2019
The conflict today concerns your partner and something that's going on at home. The two of you could have a clash of ideas, which will require that some sort of compromise be reached. Part of the compromise, just possibly, is something that neither of you has considered before.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 7.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 5.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 7.
A thoughtless remark today could hurt a co-worker more than you ever thought possible, so be careful what you say. Tell people what they want to hear.
This isn't lying, and lying is not required.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 5.
It looks as if you could have a setback, but you'll survive if you plan ahead. Keep something in reserve, and don't gamble more than you can afford to lose. The good luck comes closer to home. Something you already own could increase in value, or maybe you'll just find out it's worth more than you thought.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 7.
You're a gregarious, outgoing person. When you run into someone who doesn't want to mingle, you might secretly feel there's something wrong with him or her. If you let that get out today, you could hurt a friend's feelings. Accept them as they are, and don't expect them to be any other way. You may be pleasantly surprised.
Capricorn [Dec. 22-Jan. 19]: Today is a 6.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6.
Yesterday's blinding insights are starting to settle in by now. You might have to look at yourself in a completely new and different way. This takes a little practice, but it's worth it. You might even decide that it's OK for you to take a little time to play, instead of working 24 hours a day.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 7.
If your sweetheart thinks you're spending more on your friends than on your family, you'll be in trouble. Don't worry. You'll find a way around this rather delicate situation. What you need to give your loved one is not a gift, but a compliment.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 5.
Someone might say something that hurts your feelings today. The person probably wasn't being malicious, but if he or she was laughing, it sure felt like that, didn't it? Well, when we can laugh at ourselves, that's when we really become enlightened.

BOSTON — A 55-year-old courthouse employee was charged yesterday with stealing the wills of baseball Hall of Famers from a courthouse vault.
Man charged in theft of Hall of Famers' wills
Joseph Schnabel of Pembroke, an employee of Suffolk County Probate Court, was accused of taking the papers last year. He was arraigned in Boston Municipal Court yesterday morning on larceny charges, and a not guilty plea was entered on his behalf.
Among the papers discovered missing in October were the original wills of George Wright, Hugh Duffy and Thomas McCarthy, players for Boston teams in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Boston Police Department representative Peter Norton said Schnabel had admitted stealing wills in other states.
Schnabel surrendered to police Monday night, said Jim Borghesani, representative for the Suffolk County district attorney's office.
Utah Olympic officials to be focus of report
SALT LAKE CITY — The top two officials of Salt Lake City's Olympic bid are expected to be the focus of a lengthy report from an internal ethics investigation of the biggest corruption scandal in the history of the games.
The report, scheduled for release today, is expected to concentrate on the actions of Tom Welch, who directed the successful bid for the 2002 Winter Olympics, and Dave Johnson, his top lieutenant.
ethics panel should not be looked at as complete because the panel did not have subpoena powers and because some people refused to be interviewed. The board spent much of its time exam-

Unlike the IOC commission report last month, which focused on international committee members, the report by the organizing committee ethics panel concerned the role Utah Olympic boosters played in seeking the 2002 Winter Games.
The IOC investigation said $800,000 in cash payments, scholarships, medical care and travel expenses was paid to 14 IOC members, nine of whom have been expelled or have resigned.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Because Auburn canceled its football game against Florida State, the Atlantic Coast Conference commissioner says that maybe the Tigers shouldn't play against any of the conference's nine universities.
Auburn may be banned by ACC football teams
In a letter to Auburn athletics director David Housel, ACC commissioner John Swofford wrote, "If this is the way Auburn University is going to conduct its business, I feel it is my obligation as conference commissioner to ask all of our member institutions to seriously evaluate whether it makes sense to schedule Auburn in any sport."
The Oriando Sentinel obtained a copy of Swofford's letter.
Housel said Auburn received the letter before making the decision to cancel the game but did not elaborate.
Auburn is a member of the Southeastern Conference.
Swofford called it absolutely reprehensible that. Auburn would ever consider canceling a contracted football game that had been scheduled for national television.
Atlanta Falcons player charged with conspiracy
MIAMI — Another Atlanta Falcons player is taking a legal hit.
Receiver Tony Martin, 33, who caught five passes in the Falcons' 34-19 Super Bowl loss to Denver, returned to Miami on Monday, appearing in court in shackles to face money laundering and conspiracy charges.
Pro Bowl safety Eugene Robinson was arrested the night before the SuperBowl on charges of soliciting oral sex from a female undercover police officer. Robinson is due back in court March 2, but Martin potentially is in much deeper legal trouble.
"I'm not guilty of anything," Martin said after being released on $250,000 bond. "This whole thing is ludicrous. After this trial is over, I will be cleared."
"He would pass out turkeys at Thanksgiving, give bicycles to little kids — but he was also selling heroin and cocaine," said William Mitchell, special agent in charge of the DEA's Miami office, when Brownlee was arrested in January 1998.
Martin's legal troubles spring from his longtime relationship with Rickey Brownlee, a convicted drug dealer known as the "Mayer of Opa-Locka" for his Robin Hood style.
Martin was being investigated for months. His name appeared Monday on the third superseded indictment in the case, which also involves cocaine and heroin trafficking.
The receiver is not accused of involvement in Brownlee's drug business. Prosecutors said he wrote checks to lease luxury cars and pay legal fees for his friend because Brownlee's lawyers wouldn't take cash.
