HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Jan. 28)
The year will bring you an equal mix of happiness and joy, so try to keep that in mind if your cat gets run over or if a loved one makes a miraculous recovery from cancer.
Aries: Today is a 6
Friends and acquaintances come out of the woodwork today with offers for help. You are in the unique position of being able to work with whom you want instead of whoever is available.
Taurus: Today is a 4
Unless you are in a service profession, work is mostly about getting the job done. Today you may have to hold someone's hand and reassure him that he really does matter. Try to sound sincere.
Gemini: Today is a 5
Prepare yourself for a day of intellectual stimulation. You meet someone whose opinions set you on an entirely new train of thought. You actually might learn something new today.
Cancer: Today is a 7
When it comes to sharing with others, you may be in for a hard time. Personal values and the value of resources will be two of the issues on the table today. Try not to ruin any friendships because of this.
Leo: Today is a 3
If you can't be on your best behavior today, perhaps you should consider staying home. Your lack of consideration might offend someone. Remove your teeth from a problem instead of shaking it around.
Virgo: Today is a 9
If something old has become useless, toss it out and start something new. Whether it's a system, a relationship or food spoiling in the refrigerator, this is your day to get rid of dead weight and faulty merchandise.
Libra: Today is an 8
This is a day to expect the unexpected. Romance and art could find a way into your life. Whatever you do today feels remarkably creative and original.
Sagittarius: Today is a 7
Scorpio: Today is a 5
Capricorn: Today is a 4
Be open-minded and fair when it comes to a family dispute. The easiest solution may not be the right one. A radical approach might not work, but at least it gets everyone thinking.
Your crazy ideas may be amusing, but you would be wise not to act on them. Shop only for your immediate or foreseeable needs. Be suspicious of any question that requires a long answer.
You are a clearinghouse for good ideas. People in planning and marketing are worth their weight in gold today. Conversations and electronic communication are your strong suits for the next few days.
Aquarius: Today is a 6
Act on your behalf today. Play with self-transformation until your look matches how you feel. This is a day to let your inner wildness show. Don't concern yourself too much with the reactions of others.
Pisces: Today is a 5
Your unconscious mind is making a lot of noise. Perhaps you have too many unsolved problems in your head. Remembering your dreams provides you with a key to what is really happening.
COLLEGE BASKETBALL
PROVIDENCE, R.I. — Richard Hamilton couldn't shoot, and Jim Calhoun couldn't coach after drawing three technical fouls, but somehow No. 9 Connecticut could win.
SPORTS BRIEFS AND SCORES
UConn 63, Providence 56
The Huskies, leading by just three points with three minutes left, averted a Big East upset with a 63-56 victory against Providence last night.
Hamilton, who led Connecticut with a 22.5 average, was held to just four points on 2-for-13 shooting. Calhoun were charged with three technical fouls in the second half—the last two leading to four free throws by Jamel Thomas, which tied the score 47-47 with 8:47.
But the Friars scored just one field跑 the rest of the way.
Kevin Freeman, who sat out Saturday's win at Syracuse with a sprained right wrist, scored 17 for Connecticut (18-3, 8-2), and Jake Voskhuh added 10.
Only five players scored for Providence (8-10, 3-6). Thomas had 26 and Erron Maxey added 16, combining for 42 of the team's 56 points.
Connecticut led 28-24 at halftime, and Calhoun got his first technical 3:13 into the second half. Thomas made both shots, cutting the lead to 34-32.
Calhoun picked up his second technical and an automatic ejection with 8:47 left after a foul call against Providence. As he was leaving the bench, he was charged with his third technical.
After Thomas' four free throws tied the game, the Huskies turned up the defense and went ahead to stay on Voskuhl's two free throws with 5.52.
Khalid El-Amin made it 52-47 with a 3-pointer before a three-point play by Maxey cut the lead to two. Then Freeman made a dunk before Llewellyn Cole's free throw, which put Connecticut ahead 54-51.
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
But Providence coach Pete Gillen had taken his last timeout with 6:05 left and could stop the clock only by fouling. The Huskies made seven of eight free throws during the last three minutes.
The only field goal was Hamilton's with 2:06 to give UConn a 58-51 lead. The first half was a series of spurs.
Iowa State (10-10 overall, 3-4 Big 12) opened the second half with a 15-4 run to take the lead and held it even though season scoring leader Marcus Fizer was on the bench with four fouls. Fizer made enough free throws at the end to secure the victory.
Connecticut went out to a 15-6 lead in the first 10 minutes before a 9-0 Providence run tied the score 15-15 on Justin Farley's 3-pointer with 7:50 left in the half.
AMES, Iowa — Klay Edwards broke out of a scoring slump with 19 points, all in the second half, and Stevie Johnson added a career-high 17 as Iowa State shot 63 percent in beating Texas 85-82 last night.
Texas (8-11, 2-5), down by eight with 1:45 left, drew to 84-82 on Bernard Smith's leaning three-point shot with 11.5 seconds left. Iowa State then beat the Longhorns' press. Brad Johnson sank one of two throws, and Smith badly missed a hurried three-point attempt from the left wing at the buzzer.
The Huskies followed with a 10-0 surge, then Providence got the next six points to close to 25-21 with 2.01.
Jerry Curry, starting for the first time since Dec. 24, hit four three-point shots and finished with 14 points for Iowa State. Fizer scored 12 and Lee Love 10. It was the first time five Iowa State players scored in double figures since a 96-47 victory against Chicago State on Dec. 27, 1994.
Iowa State 85. Texas 82
with a stomach virus. Kris Clack lked the Longhorns with 17 points, Dejuan Vazquez scored 16 and Smith14.
Trailing 40-37 at halftime, Iowa State got a three-pointer from Curry to start the second half and built a 52-44 lead. The Cyclones led by as many as nine and didn't falter when Fizer, who averages 15.1 points, left the game with 10:47 remaining after getting his fourth foul.
The 6-foot 6 freshman returned with 4:22 left and Iowa State leading 73-70. He sank two free throws at the 3:52 mark. Love hit two more for a 77-70 lead and the Cyclones held on.
Texas played without No. 2 score
