HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (April 17).
Instead of running wild and free, push to achieve the career of your dreams. You are feeling rebellious in April. Invest in your future in May. Postpone changes to your living arrangements in July. Push your self to perfection in your job in September.
Aries: Today is a 6.
Taurus: Today is an 8.
A temper flare-up, no matter how small, could make a negative impression. Bite your tongue. That will not hurt as much as the argument would. It will not be difficult. All you have to do is listen instead of talk. The older person will love that.
Finish up business first thing this morning. You will start losing interest as the day progresses. That is unusual for you. But, there is something going on that is changing all that. If you do not have enough excuses to travel already, it do because a faraway friend wants to see you.
Gemini: Today is a 6.
If you are going shopping this afternoon, make a list first. Do not forget things you need for your house. You may have been struggling with a small appliance that is broken. Maybe that is why you do not like to do chores.
Cancer: Today is a 6.
Your workload is so heavy and confusing today you might be ready to quit the whole thing. Don't do it.
Get a partner to help. Your next lesson has to do with delegation. Where did you ever get the idea that you had to do everything all by yourself anyway?
Leo: Today is a 7.
You have been in such a good mood lately, you may have forgotten to do a couple important tasks. Now it is imperative you get serious. Don't complain. You are strong, enthusiastic and good looking. And it is a Friday!
Virgo: Today is a 7.
An older person may be stressed today, but you should be in a good mood. Your life life is going well. If you do not have a love life, you are likely to stumble onto one. A person who would be very good for you is not far away.
Libra: Today is a 6.
Scorpio: Today is a 6.
It is time to think about changes you want to make to your home. If you get everything planned, you could make lot of progress during the weekend. Even if you have company coming, you can still tackle a big project. That might even be why they are coming.
Sagittarius: Today is a 6.
You will learn the most today by working with an expert. That is your favorite way of acquiring information. It may interfere with your routine, but that is OK. With a little bit of fancy stepping, you will be able to find the time.
Capricorn: Today is a 7.
Aquarius: Today is a 6.
You have about 80 things to finish, and you only started 15. Not only do you have to hurry, you need a clear idea of where you are going. Someone you do not like is telling you what to do, and he or she is right. Go along nicely without arguing.
You may wake up confused, but by lunchtime your head should clear. It will be easy to see what to do next, and it is going to look like fun. You will be anxious to get started. Unfortunately, the first thing you run into is a problem. With your new attitude, however, it will look quite different.
You have to take care of practical matters. Where is the money coming from, who gets it first and how much will be left? It is important to know how much you have so you can figure out how much you will need. You may not get the raise yet, but you are moving in that direction.
Pisces: Today is a 6.
There are hassles first thing this morning, but conditions get better. By afternoon, you will be in a good mood. Tonight, you will be ready to party. Most of your friends will feel similarly inclined. You might even be able to talk a shy person into going along.
Kansas track and field decathlete Nathan Prenger and heptaheletes Candy Mason and Amber Mounday began competition yesterday at the Mount Sac Relays in Walnut, Calif.

"Candy was running the 100-meter hurdles, and she tripped on a hurdle and fell off the track," Schwartz said.

the Big 12 and Big 10 Conferences, will be the final regular-season event for the Jayhawks.
With rounds of 311.1 and 310, Kansas posted two of its best team rounds of the season at the Dixie Classic. The Jayhawks have shot less than 310 this season in only two rounds.
"The tournament gives us a competition just prior to the Big 12 Championship," coach Jerry Waugh said. The conference championship will be April 23-26 in Norman, Okla.
Waugh said the Jayhawks were beginning to play well and he hoped they would peak at their last tournaments.
On Tuesday, the women finished in a tie for fifth place along with 26th-
"We are winding up our season, and hopefully we will go out with a bang." Waugh said.
Freshman Jamie Tucker and sophomore Susan Tessary tied for 11th in the tournament with two-round scores of 151, while Junior Mandy Munsch tied for 24th with her score of 155.
It will feature club teams from schools including the Kansas, Truan State and Air Force. The Kansas Jayhawk Rugby Football Club is the host of the event, which previously has been held in Houston.
The event hours are from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. tomorrow and 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday.
Three Jayhawks finished in the top 25 in the tournament.
The Midwest's best collegiate women's rugby teams will converge on the Westwic Sports Complex this weekend for the Women's Western Collegiate Rugby Championships.

"The team has been working real hard this season and winning this championship has been their goal," coach John Wiley said. "There has been a lot of dedication, hard work and sacrifice that have gone into this season in order to prepare ourselves."
The Kansas Jayhawk Rugby Football Club consists of an under-19 team, a women's collegiate team, a men's collegiate team and a men's club team. The club was founded in 1964 and became one of only five rugby clubs to purchase its own facility when it acquired Westwic Sports Complex in 1996.

Blackhawks miss NHL playoffs, ending streak
CHICAGO — It's nearly impossible to miss the NHL playoffs — just about every team gets in. But this year, for the first time since 1969, the Chicago Blackhawks are out

"It's a terrible feeling to be out of the playoffs," Chicago's Tony Amonte said.

After losing in Toronto on Wednesday night, the blackhawks were eliminated
It's the end of the NHL's longest current playoff run — 28 years. The longest in NHL history, 29 years by the Boston Bruins, was snapped last season.
"It's time for changes and it better not be one or two changes," Hartsburg said after the 3-2 loss Wednesday in Toronto, the Hawks' fifth straight defeat.
"You want to give yourself a chance to win the Stanley Cup. This is what you play 82 games for and you train all summer for, is to get back in the playoffs. It's going to be
from the playoff race as Edmonton and San Jose wrapped up the final two spots in the West.
Owner William Wirtz already has pledged there will be changes next season. And coach Craig Hartsburg welcomes them.
"If I'm a change, then so be it. This team can't go on this way. It needs a total overhaul."
Chicago's final push to the playoffs was stopped two weekends ago when they lost consecutive games to Detroit and the New York Rangers on final-shot goals.
