HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (March 27).
Today's activity (March 17)
Your assignment this year is to learn how to serve. If you do it well, you'll be richly rewarded. Don't think you have to be in control. That's one thing you may have to give up or postpone. Be patient. This will make you a better leader.
Aries (March 21-April 19). Today is a 6. Is it just your imagination, or are more things going wrong than usual? Instead of being impatient and making things worse, relax and take deep breaths. Now, focus on what the others need.
Taurus (April 20-May 20), Today is a 7.
You may be the one who has to make the tough decision. Luckily, you're good at that. Make everybody stick to the budget. They'll be glad you did.
Gemini (May 21-June 21). Today is a 6.
You're at a crossroads in your life. Which way to
turn? Whom to follow? As terrifying as it may
seem, it could be you. Looks like you're the one
with the common sense this time.
Cancer (June 22- July 22). Today is a 6. There are a lot of changes going on, that's for sure. If you're trying to please someone else, you may wonder if they'll ever decide what they want. Kids will be squirrelly, too. Deep breaths!
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22). Today is a 7.
Keep your eye on the pea under the shell. Even
that may not work. There are so many changes
going on, it may be hard to find the bargain or
the profit. It's there, though.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Today is a 7.
Others look to you to figure out what to do next.
Your ability to keep priorities straight is priceless now. Pay attention! It'll be like directing traffic in the middle of a hurricane.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22). Today is a 7.
As you are cleaning up, patching up and following through, also check on possible changes. There'll be plenty of them. People may not want things they ordered. They could ask for more.
Be prepared to be flexible.
Scorpio (Oct. 23.-Nov. 21). Today is a 7.
You can get a lot accomplished, most of it
through someone else. You provide the direction
and motivation, of course. You won't get all
the way, but you'll make progress.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Today is a 6.
Don't believe everything you hear. Give people
a chance to take back what they say. You may
get to the truth eventually. Keep asking.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Today is an 8. Others are facing stress and changes. You can see what needs to be done. Provide direction, inspiration, even a little security. Hugs are good, too.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Today is a 6.
The money will flow right through your fingers if you're not careful. Don't make promises that will be expensive to keep.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20). Today is a 6.
If you and your partner get into a fight, things will go from bad to worse. If you listen and learn from each other, you become the Dynamic Duo.

A wrist injury kept Agassi from bidding for his third consecutive Australian Open championship in January. He's 12-2 since returning and looked sharp against Johansson.
"It was definitely a letdown not playing Australia this year," Agassi said. "It's been a great place for me to get my year started. But now I've got a lot of energy, and I'm coming out of my shoes looking for competition."

No. 2 Venus Williams, seeking her fourth title in the event, became the first semifinalist by rallying past No. 12 Elena Dementieva 5-7, 6-3, 6-2. Williams won despite blowing a 3-0 lead in the first set and committing 48 unforced errors and 10 double faults.
"I never really felt that I was going to lose." Williams said. "Theoretically, I should have won the first set."

Two men's fourth-round matches ended with injuries on a sunny, humid, 85-degree afternoon. No. 5 Tim Henman retired because of a stiff neck trailing No. 12 Roger Federer 6-2. Gaston Gaudio quit with severe cramping trailing Juan Ignacio Chela 6-1, 5-7, 4-3.

Chela's quarterfinal opponent will be 1998 champion Marcelo Rios, who beat No. 16 Alex Corretja 6-2, 6-2.

"That was a beauty," Agassi said. "Sometimes those shots happen."
Agassi controlled the baseline rallies by keeping Johansson off balance and showed unusual snap with his serve, betting eight aces, including one at 120 mph.
"You go out there with a healthy respect for somebody that's won the first slam of the year," Agassi said. "It's an opportunity to raise your game."
Agassi is playing for the 16th consecutive year at Key Biscayne, where he won titles in 1990, 1995, 1996 and 2001.
