Taurus (April 20-May 20) - Today is am 8.
Acquiesce gracefully to your partner's demands. There is no use arguing, but a subtle ploy might work. Try not to spend too much of the household money. If your partner wants something expensive, suggest that he or she chip in extra for it.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) - Today is a 6.
Concentrate on your work this morning. Old business must be completed before the day ends. Entice yourself to greater efficiency by promising an evening of fun and frlic. Your most outrageous partner would love to play.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) - Today is am 8.
Smoldering embers may rekindle today. Watch out, i are you anywhere near an old flame. Do not make any plans tonight because you are going to be too busy. A job you have already promised and new assignments will take up more time than you have.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) - Today is a 6.
You may be stuck in the mud for most of the day.
Struggling only makes it worse. To win this game, you are going to have to outsmart the opposition. Tonight, stop talking trivia. Your sweetheart has something significant to discuss.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) - Today is an 8.
Cram your head full of knowledge this morning. You will need as much as you can gather to solve a domestic problem tonight. You will have to figure out the clues to get the right answer.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) - Today is a 5.
No need to panic if money is tight. Discuss the matter in private with a wealthier person. Look for another source of income, not another loan. A secret revealed tonight will steer you in the right direction.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21) - Today is a 9.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) - Today is a 7.
Obligations weigh heavy on your shoulders this morning. A private consultation helps you understand what has been happening behind the scenes. Make choices carefully. There may be hidden consequences. Meditate on recent developments this evening and relax.
Your power is beginning to wane slightly. Seize this opportunity to wrap up as many deals as possible. Do not start new enterprises. Wait until later in the week. Sell instead of buy. Clean out your closets and get rid of stuff you have outgrown.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) - Today is a 7.
Wrap up a project you have been working on with friends. People will be in a decisive mood, so it will be easier to go through the material. Either do each job, reschedule it or scratch it off your list. There is no more time to think about it.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) - Today is a 6.
An older person attempts to dominate you. If you share a common goal, go along quietly. If the other person is headed in the wrong direction, use a diversionary tactic. Reinforcements arrive tonight.
University promotes itself across Kansas
SPORTS BRIEFS
In the 1970s, groups such as the Endowment Association, Alumni Association and Athletics Department began visiting about 10 to 20 Kansas cities every summer to answer questions and to promote upcoming events.
Every summer, representatives from the University of Kansas send people on a tour of Kansas, promoting the University.
The event consists primarily of evening meetings with a dinner, a social hour and a guest speaker. The University targets alumni and season ticket holders, but the events are open to the public.
"It's a payback to alums and fans who visit us 20 to 25 times a year," said Scott McMichael, director of the Williams Fund, the source of athletic scholarship money. "We go to their backyard and bring the University to them."
The Athletics Department uses the event to promote season football tickets and the Williams Fund.
The event also is used to highlight head coaching changes. Roy Williams toured during his rookie season as did Derry Allen. This summer, baseball coach Bobby Randall was able to visit Garden City and Kansas City, Kan.
"What's fun is to see great KU fans out there and their enthusiasm," Randall said.
These events are not utilized as money making tools.
Basketball team guards Sunflower games title
The Ninth Annual Sunflower State Games, an amateur sports event for Kansans, kicked off July 17 and will run through this weekend.
One of the events was 19-and-old men's basketball.

Bradford contributed 16 points on eight of 15 shooting.
On the final day of the tournament, the Jocks beat Wyatt 69-61 and then Topeka's AAA-Kansas en route to the team's championship victory over Bethel-Pyle 77-57.

Doc's Jocks retained their title.
Chris Thompson, Independence senior, swig his way to his first Kansas Amateur men's golf championship Sunday.
Thompson and his closest competitor, Ron Brewer, a 52-year-old from Leawood, exchanged leads several times throughout the 36-hole match at the Wichita Country Club.
After 18 holes, they were tied, and neither ever trailed by more than one stroke.
The match went into sudden death
overtime. Thompson won when Brewer missed his final putt by inches.
At the University, Thompson, an NCAA All-American, led the team with a 72.7 stroke average. He competed in 14 tournaments last season and
finished seventh or better in 10.

Aiello said the league was confident White and the ad's sponsors would comply with the NFL order to stop picturing White in uniform.
The ad documented criticism White said he had received for speaking out against homosexuality, which he first did in a speech to Wisconsin lawmakers in March.
Bob Harlan, Green Bay Packers president, faxed a letter of apology to Elizabeth Birch, executive director of the Human Rights Campaign, yesterday.
