HOROSCOPES
Today's birthday:
This is an exciting year full of opportunities and the revival of old dreams and relationships.. Past discretions will come back to haunt you.
Aries: Today is a 6.
Taurus: Today is a 4.
You need someone else in your life to break those self-destructive cycles. The voice of reason speaks in loving, compassionate tones. Power tastes and feels better when shared.
Gemini: Today is an 8.
If you are just tuning into the sensual vibe that surrounds you, this is the day to act on it. The moon is passing from Virgo to Libra, filling your life with motivation and balance. Wake up and take advantage.
Talking out of turn starts a dialogue on the wrong foot. Even if you speak from deep knowledge, no one will listen if your tone of voice is unpleasant. Young people are especially restless.
Cancer: Today is a 3.
The bright light of understanding pierces an emotional well. Get a head start on a major project before someone else steals your thunder. It is possible to be aggressive and gracious at the same time.
Leo: Today is a 5.
If your day is annoying, you can always hide from it in the comfort of your relationship. If you don't have anyone to help you get over it, a good book or movie wonders. Self-improvement is up to you.
Virgo: Today is a 6.
Your relationships glow with health. Your system runs so smoothly that you can accommodate someone else without major adjustments. Self-centered people open their minds to other ways of thinking.
Sagittarius: Today is a 5.
If logic has been getting you nowhere, why not let intuition take the wheel? Any kind of action at all is better than spending the day frozen with indecision. Tune back in to the natural rhythms of your body.
Capricorn: Today is a 7.
Trust your feelings in a relationship. There is only so much you can analyze and evaluate when the time is ripe and the outcome is obvious. If you take the lead, others will follow without question.
Scorpio: Today is a 3.
Aquarius: Today is a 4.
Your legs tense from your lizard-brain's fight-or-flight messages. Embrace your logical understanding that it's better to face a problem than to flee it. A moment of laughter returns lightness to your feet.
Let yourself drift with the current because you know exactly where it is taking you. You feel sensual and onstage with every motion you make. With apparent unconcern, you keep one eye on the clock.
Pisces: Today is a 2.
The time has come to unveil your plans. Many geniuses have been called crazy at some time in their careers. The stranger your idea, the more you will have to rely on your powers of persuasion.
A wildly different idea presents itself as an obvious solution. If you lack the energy to lead, a good suggestion in a friendly ear could make all the difference. Trust and friendship are the best starting points for any group endeavor.

Illinois State tops Tennessee in OT
'Easy' layup puts Volunteers under after tiring contest
The Associated Press
SACRAMENTO, Calif.
Dan Muller wormed inside for a layup with 1.8 seconds left in overtime last night, giving Illinois State an 82-81 victory over Tennessee in a brutal, fast-paced NCAA West Regional duel.
When Tennessee's Vegas Davis missed a desperation heave at the buzzer, Muller turned and bellowed to celebrate the victory in a draining game that seesawed throughout the second half and overtime.
In Kevin Stallings and Jerry Green, both teams are coached by former Kansas assistants under Roy Williams.
Illinois State, led by Rico Hill's 22 points, LeRoy Watkins' 18 and Steve Hansell's 16, trailed most of the first half but patiently worked back to a 66-57 lead in the second half.
But Hansell drove hard for a layup to tie it at 72-72 with 54 seconds left, and each team missed a shot to put the game away in regulation.
out when it took a 72-70 lead on a dunk by C.J. Black with 1:13 to go.
Tennessee, which hasn't won an NCAA Tournament game in 15 years and hadn't played in one in nine years, seemed ready to pull this one
Watkins scored first on a layup in overtime, and Black responded with a layup off a steal. With 1:21 to go, Hansell's drive and free throw put Illinois State ahead 78-77, but an offensive rebound by Tennessee's Rashard Lee put the Vols ahead again 79-78.
Watkins drove almost in slow motion but hard and unstoppably to make it 80-79, and Black matched that with another layup with 16 seconds left. Illinois State worked the ball for one last shot. Hill got it to Kyle Cartmill, who passed it underneath to Muller for the game-winner.
"That last shot was an easy shot," Muller said. "I didn't have to do anything. Kyle just got me the ball."
Tennessee, led by Brandon Wharton's 23 points, suffered from miserable shooting by point guard Tony Harris, who hit only one of 13 shots from the field. The Vols shot only 37 percent in the game.
Illinois State (25-5) next plays Arizona. Tennessee finished its season 20-9.
