HOROSCOPES
Today's birthday (April 28)
Today you are feeling a bit of jealousy toward some of your friends. Don't let it get in the way of your friendship. Even though it seems to be bothering you, try to blow it off.
Aries: Today is a 7.
Listening to advice gets you further today than following your headstrong ways. Others are capable of coming up with good ideas, too. Friends have a big influence on your day.
Taurus: Today is a 5.
You may be faced with disillusion or disappointment today. Even though you have been working hard, it still is insufficient. It is too easy to become impatient with others who do not understand your problem.
Gemini: Today is a 7.
Motivational speakers and surrealists alike can expect a wonderful day. Plans and visions fill your head, some of them strange, all of them possible. You are allowed to take back what you said yesterday.
Cancer: Today is a 6.
You can only hide for so long before you have to come and face the music. Something you have been dreading may not be so bad after all. Ignore your feelings, and lead with your thoughts.
Leo: Today is a 7.
Your chances for success are excellent but so is the possibility of sabotaging your own efforts. Competition may lead to your downfall. Be satisfied with what you get today.
Virgo: Today is a 6.
If you are stuck today, this may be a good time to help others. A change in the weather finds you improperly dressed. Take extra vitamins to keep up your resistance.
You know what you want as soon as you see it. If you are smart and brave, you will go forward and claim what you discover. Romance and treasure hunting are favored activities today.
Capricorn: Today is a 6.
Sagittarius: Today is an 8.
The environment around you is a single living organism that does not appreciate your interference. Try not to make any ripples today, much less waves. This is a bad day to engage in personal combat.
Scorpio: Today is a 5.
Aquarius: Today is an 8.
Once you get started on a topic close to your heart, you have a lot more to say than you realize. Your sudden expertise makes a positive impression on others. Everyone is an optimist today.
Whether you started it, you are at the center of all the action today. If you want attention, that's just what you will get. Your exploits take on a mythical quality at this time.
Not everyone shares your sense of responsibility. This may be because not everyone is as involved as you are. You may have to change your expectations of others if you wish to work with them.
Pisces: Today is a 6.
You seek tranquility in a world that is anything but tranquil. Unplug yourself from the system, and find a place to meditate. Doing nothing for awhile is just what the doctor ordered.

Former pitcher injured in Dominican car crash
SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic — Hall of Fame pitcher Juan Manichal sustained serious head injuries when his car ran off the highway and crashed before dawn yesterday.
Marcharal was listed in serious but stable condition with injuries to the head, neck, spine and left leg at Santo Domingo's Armed Forces Hospital, said a hospital director, Pedro Delrado Valdez.
Police said weather was not a factor and the accident was being investigated.
He was later transferred to a medical center in the capital to undergo head X-rays.
"We will keep him under constant observation, but his situation isn't critical," Delgado Valdez said.
The accident happened at 5 a.m. in Villa Altagracia, about 30 miles north of Santo Domingo. Police said Manichal was returning to Santo Domingo from the provincial capital of Santiago.
His driver, Bernardino Lopez Ferreras, and a security guard, Eduardo Rodriguez, also were injured seriously and were hospitalized in stable condition.
Marichal's family and government officials rushed to the hospital, where the former star pitcher had regained consciousness, Delgado Valdez said.
Marichal was appointed Dominican sports minister when Leoneil Fernandez was inaugurated president in 1996.
Marichal had a 243-142 record while pitching for the San Francisco Giants, Boston Red Sox and Los Angeles Dodgers. He had a career 2.89 ERA and won 20 or more games on seven occasions. He pitched a no-hitter for the Giants in 1963.
In March, Marichal was briefly hospitalized in the Dominican Republic for diabetes.
Player gets jail time in sexual assault case
BUFALO, N.Y. The state Court of Appeals refused to review
Atlanta Falcons line-
backer Cornelius
Bennett's sexual assault
case yesterday, clearing
the way for a 60-day jail term. Associate Judge Carmen Cipark had delayed the start of Bennett's
sentence two weeks ago pending her decision on whether the full court should review the case.
Her ruling yesterday said there is no question of law presented which ought to be reviewed by the Court of Appeals and that permission was denied.
In their request to the state's highest court, Bennett's attorneys claimed the sentence given Bennett after he pleaded guilty to misdemeanor sex abuse was too harsh. Attorney Leonard Zaccagnino contended Bennett, a former member of the Buffalo Bills, received a jail term only because of his celebrity status.
Bennett played for the Bills for nine years before signing a four-year, $13.6 million contract with the Falcons two years ago. He still could face disciplinary proceedings under the NFL's collective bargaining agreement.
In addition to the jail sentence, City Court Judge Robert Russell Jr. fired Bennett $1,000, ordered him to pay $617,26 of the woman's hospital bills, perform 100 hours of community service, and undergo anger-management and substance-abuse counseling.
Bennett was due back in City Court yesterday, where his attorneys were expected to ask a judge to resentence him without a jail term. Assistant District Attorney Ray Herman said.
Bennett entered the plea Sept. 9 in connection with a violent encounter last May 18 in a Buffalo hotel room that sent a woman to a hospital. No details of the incident have been released.
Bennett's attorneys did not immediately return a phone call seeking comment.
