HOROSCOPES
Today's birthday
You have encountered some tough times this week. Forgot about all of those problems and get ready for an exciting weekend.
Aries: Today is a 7.
You're as restless as a cat leaping at birds from an apartment window, so why torture yourself by staying in? Get out, explore new avenues for fun and don't be shy - speak up and you're sure to meet fascinating people.
Taurus: Today is a 7.
It's not that you don't love your friends and/or partner, it's just that they can be so irritatingly familiar. A clandestine flirtation with a mysterious stranger will lend spice to your day, be sure and dress appropriately.
Gemini: Today is a 5.
Who's been giving you advice lately? You'd be better off not listening; the person who currently has your ear is substituting gossip for facts. Trust in the ones who have proven themselves by their actions.
Cancer: Today is a 6.
Cancer is in a particularly teenaged mood - you just want to lounge around selfishly thinking of your own needs and doing something alone. But your partner or friends won't get off your back. If you don't give in, you may give out.
Leo: Today is a 9.
Leo is the center of the hive and there are some very enchanted bees buzzing around. You're having a blast and so is everyone around you as you charm your way through the crowd like a hot knife cutting butter. Enjoy, Leo, not many days are this ripe for fun.
Scorpio: Today is a 5.
Libra: Today is an 8.
Virao; Today is a 6.
Saaittarius: Today is a 7.
Family obligations call even as a romance heats up, leaving you confused and torn. Listen to your mind rather than your traitorous heart, Virgo, and you'll make the correct decision.
Capricorn: Today is a 6.
Level-headed Libra is happiest when life is in balance, and you're very happy today. Work goes smoothly, and partnered Libras can expect a positive evening with potential for meandering but fascinating conversation.
You run ahead of the pack today and everyone' panting to catch up with you. You only wished to be this cool in junior high so bask while you can. Egorich Sags should watch their selfish leanings today or there will be apologies to make tomorrow.
A joke can go too far today unless you're sensitive to the joke-ee's feelings. Smooth over any spats with genuine apologies or you'll just make the situation worse. If you find yourself in an ethical dilemma don't ignore your principles for a moment of pleasure.
Aauarius: Today is an 8.
The quicksilver brilliant brain of an Aquarian is an amazing thing to behold, especially when it's revved up like it is today. Paint a picture, write a song, or just play with words and allow yourself to fall into conversation wherever it starts.
Principles are wonderful things but you've been a bit rigid lately; it's time to unbend and make nice. It may seem as if you and your partner are approaching a situation from two different planets but some calm talking will show your common goals.
Pisces: Today is a 9.
It's a lucky Friday for Pisces, though it's up in the air where the good fortune will hit. Should you ask someone for a date? I'm betting Pisces will find a way to use that luck to get exactly what the Fish most desires.

Vaulters to show skills during Reno competition
"The overall goal of this meet is to decide who goes to the Kansas State triangular," said coach Gary Schwartz. The Jayhawks can only take a limited number of people to the triangular meet, which will be held Jan. 31 in Manhattan.
Kansan staff report
Tomorrow, four pole-vaulters will be competing at the Reno Pole Vault Summit in Reno, Nev.
The rest of the team will head to Columbia, Mo., for the Missouri Invitational.
The pole-vaulters going to Reno are junior Candy Mason, freshman Ashley Feinberg, freshman Garrett Attig and senior Marc Romito. Mason holds the school record for pole vault, with a vault of 12-1/2.
The Kansas track and field team will compete in two cities this weekend.
Both the men's and women's teams look strong heading into this weekend's competition at Missouri, Schwartz said.
"If both sides step up and have good performances, we'll do really well," he said.
Other schools participating are Missouri, the University of Missouri-Kansas City, Southeast Missouri State, Lyndenwood College, Missouri Valley College, Lincoln University (Jefferson City, Mo.) and the Illinois men's team.
Field events start at 9 a.m. and the running events start at 11 a.m.
No.20 Florida St 83, Wake Forest 59
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Randell Jackson scored 19 points and Terrell Baker added 16 Thursday night to lead No. 20 Florida State to an 83-59 victory over cold-shooting Wake Forest.
The Seminoles (14-5, 3-4 Atlantic Coast Conference) took command late in the first half and were never challenged afterward on the way to their first conference win at home this season.
Wake Forest (9-7, 2-4) tried to offset a height disadvantage by shooting a lot of 3-pointers, but managed to hit only 4 of 25 tries from long distance while shooting 33.3 percent overall.
Corey Louis added 14 points for Florida State, which shot 54.7 percent and controlled the boards 40-31.
Freshmen Robert O'Kelley with 15 points. Another freshman, Niki Arinze, had 14 and Steven Goolsby scored 11, all in the first half.
Baker scored all seven of his first-half points in a span of 71 seconds, sparking a 17-4 run that gave Florida State a 40-29 halftime lead.
Goolsby came off the bench and kept Wake Forest close early in the game. His 3-pointer with 6:26 left in the half gave the Demon Deacons their last lead at 20-19.

Sole claim to record at stake
Continued from page 1B
The Red Raiders lack a dominant post player this season. Last season they had Tony Battie, a first-team All-Big 12 selection who was the No.5 selection in the NBA Draft last spring.
"The pressure is off us now because this team is already in the record books," Williams said. "I have nothing against seeing two teams in the record book, but I would really like to see one team have it by itself. This record means something to me because of the tradition that has been established here."
But against Texas Tech, the Jayhawks will have to stop a three-guard attack that features quickness and perimeter shooting.
Texas Tech is led by point guard Cory Carr, who leads the Big 12 Conference in scoring with 24 points per game. Williams said Kansas forward Paul Pierce probably will defend Carr because of Pierce's athletic ability.
The backcourt of Carr, Stan Bonewitz and Rayford Young account for more than 66 percent of the Red Raiders' offense and more than 37 percent of their rebounding. But the frontcourt is far from the depth or talent featured on last season's 19-9 team.
This season, forward Cliff Owens averages 10.9 points and 8.5 rebounds for Texas Tech and center Johnny Phillips averages four points and 1.9 rebounds. Reserve center Ross Charmichael averages 4.6 points and 4.8 rebounds.
