WEDNESDAY, NOV. 7, 2001 HOROSCOPES today's Birthday (Nov. 7). Are you ready to take on more responsibility? Are you ready to have more money in your pocket? It seems these two things will be linked together for you this year. Amazingly, this may not require more work. Watch for your opportunity. Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is a 7. Love is more important than money, as everyone knows. But it's nice to have both. With the right person by your side, becoming fabulously wealthy is just a matter of work and imagination. Don't let everybody in on your plans. Taurus (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 5. You'll learn the rest of the story about something you recently heard. You thought it didn't sound right at first, and you were correct. This is one of the reasons you like to be slow to make judgments and take action. Cancer (June 22-July 22) — Today is a 6. It's still difficult to express exactly how you feel, but it's getting easier. Pay the bills and take care of business. Shop for bargains and fix up your place. Make a date for tomorrow night, for a home-cooked meal. Gemini (May 21-June 21) — Today is a 7. You're getting stronger, more confident and also more cautious. If you score, don't brag about it. You're entering a three-week phase when discretion is advised. You can tell the truth, but not unless you're asked. Don't lie, but don't volunteer information. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 6. You're strong, but so is your opposition. You're forceful, dynamic and cute, but so are they. Don't hold back. Put on your best performance, and you'll steal the show! Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Today is a 6. It's gett- ing easier for you to concentrate. That welcome trend continues for almost three weeks. You'll also find it easier to make choices. This will come in handy when others try to pressure you into doing what works for them. Resist their demands unless things also work for you. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct 22) — Today is a 6. Festivities need to be curtailed for a while. You're in a phase when you can make a lot of money. Now, make a plan and start working on it. SPORTS Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 6. Serious decisions need to be made, with many points of view considered. Everyone feels strongly about this. Can you stay objective? Can you be led by reason, not emotion? Sure you can. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today is a 7. Your resourcefulness will be paying off by now. Your frugality, too. You've been playing it safe, and now you know why. When the opportunity shows up, you can grab it. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is a 6. Ask a friend to help you get a big job done, then split your earnings. Don't ask this friend to help for free. That wouldn't be fair. Besides, you'll save by paying cash instead of owing this person a favor. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is a 7. You're in the mood for a fight. Is everybody else being obnoxious, or do you just have a chip on your shoulder? Maybe it's a little of both. You're famous for your analytical skills. Make sure you get all the evidence before you attack. Pisces(Feb. 19-March 20) Today is a 7. It'll soon be easier to express your opinions and make decisions. It will stop giving all points of view equal weight and choose one to support. The right choice will be obvious. Hayes shows tough coaching approach By Brent Briggeman Kansan sportswriter Things were relatively quiet on the Kansas football practice field yesterday, during Tom Hayes' first day in charge. The normal chatter was one of the first things to go as the Jayhawks' new coach injected his no-nonsense personality into the practice routine. "It was business-like and organized out there," said Leo Etienne, junior linebacker. "Not to say it wasn't organized when coach Allen was here, but you could just feel the organization, you know what you're going to do. You're going to do this at time and that at that time." "It was a little quiet, but they were going fast, that's what I care about." said Hayes, who took the job of interim coach after coach Terry Allen was fired on Sunday. "If they're going fast and paying attention, that's what's important." Hayes didn't make any drastic changes to the practice schedule, though he did make small alterations to the stretching and conditioning phases. The major change — according to the players — was attitude and intensity, something lacking under Allen. Senior safety Jamarei Bryant said Allen's personality didn't command the same respect as Hayes'. "A lot of people would say something back to (Allen) and mouth off to him — he'd never say nothing back," Bryant said. "You say that to coach Hayes and he's going to snap at you and get in your face and you're not going to do it again." Offensive coordinator Rij Scherer said the change in personality might be what the struggling Jayhawks needed. "Sometimes when you're in a rut, you need some changes, you need jump started," Scherer said. "When you're up on a plateau you need someone to push you off." Overall, Hayes said his first day of practice was a success. "It was fast tempo, it was a good preparation day," said Hayes, who worked for more than 30 years as an assistant at both the college and professional level before accepting the promotion on Sunday. "I felt like our players were concentrated on both sides of the ball." THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN = 11A both sides of the bar. After practice, Hayes again showed he was in charge by ordering that the locker room be cleaned. The rule is long-standing, but one the Jayhawks have ignored for the most part. "That's how he is." Bryant said. "It's his way or no way."

"I think we have the kind of makeup with this team that they would be able to get themselves ready to play a football game regardless of our situation," Solich said yesterday. "That's what has made them so enjoyable to coach." It just so happens that the "situation" Solich refers to looks pretty good for Nebraska. With three more wins, the Huskers (10-0 overall, 6-0) will be Big 12 champions playing for the national title. That's a lot of incentive for the Huskers, ranked No. 1 in the Bowl Championship Series ratings. "They're 10-0 for a combination of reasons." Solich said. "One, they're a very talented, athletic group. Two, they prepare well and they've got goals that they want to reach and they've gone out to reach them." Another big reason is their health. Defensive tackle Jason Lohr, who tore a knee ligament against Notre Dame in the third game, is the only starter to suffer a season-ending injury. season-ending injury. "We are banged up some, but I think most teams would expect to be after playing ten football games. We have not had the crippling injuries that have sent guys out the entire season," Solich said. Nebraska is at home Saturday against Kansas State (4-4, 2-4), a team that struggled until scoring 82 points in wins against Kansas and Iowa State during the last two weeks.
