HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Oct. 11).
Shop carefully before you buy real estate or something important for your home. Be critical. Read all the fine print. Dig for the details. The more you know before you write the check, the better the surprises will be.
Aries (March 21-April 19). Today is a 7. One little thing could cause difficulties, so go over your checklist again. Do everything perfectly, and you'll impress a very influential person.
Taurus (April 20-May 20). Today is a 6.
An outing this weekend will do wonders to brighten your spirits. This doesn't have to be expensive. Meanwhile, put one of your worries to rest or simply toss it out.
Gemini (May 21-June 21). Today is a 7. You're blessed with good communication skills, and they're getting even better. Don't hesitate to bring up a delicate subject (money) with a loved one.
Cancer (June 22-July 22). Today is a 4. You're not working hard for nothing, you know. But you can still get somebody to help. That wouldn't be a violation of the rules.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22). Today is a 7.
You're smart but not infallible. A scheme
that at first seems brilliant still needs
some more work. Be cautious in order to
avoid extra expenses.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Today is a 6.
Keep at it, and soon you'll have things arranged to your liking. Don't worry too
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct 22). Today is a 7.
much about where you'll get the financing. Work up your plan, then relax.
The more you learn, the more powerful you become, but you don't know everything yet. A silly household frustration could have you stalled, but you can figure it out. Keep trying.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21). Today is a 6.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21). Today is a 6. A financial reversal inspires you to be more creative and inventive, maybe even more frugal. Make the switch from a bad habit to a good one, and do it for keeps.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Today is a 7.
It'll soon be a lot easier to get information,
but that doesn't mean it's all good.
There'll be more gossip and innuendo.
Check out what you hear before you pass it along.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan.19). Today is a 6. Your decision should be made by now. If not, finish your research and make up your mind. You want to be ready when the time is right. You'll know when.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb.18). Today is an 8. If you're gonna be late for a date, better call and keep your sweetheart informed "Hanging out with friends" may not be considered a valid excuse, by the way.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20). Today is a 6. Stay out of the congestion as much as you can in order to minimize confusion. And, don't offer your opinion unless they ask for it. Until then, they won't be listening.

Late Night opportunity to show off dance skills
Late Night with Roy Williams kicks off at 10 tonight at Allen Fieldhouse with a hint of conflict.
While few doubt the abilities of the players on the court, no one seems to be able to agree which men's basketball player has the best dance moves.
"All the basketball players are really good dancers," Laura Alexander, sophomore Crimson Girl, said. "But Aaron Miles is by far the best and he's very modest about it."
Deanna Doyle, senior and co-captain of the Crimson Girls, said sophomore guard Miles had the most personality in his dancing. Miles disagreed.
Collison, senior forward, said Miles was not exactly right.
"I'm not the best dancer." Miles said. "Nick Collison can move. Big Nick can move."
"He's just messing with you." Collison said. "I can't dance. I'm the fourth-worst dancer on the team."
Collison said the list of worst dancers ran down as follows: Stephen Vinson, freshman guard; Christian Moody, freshman forward; Kirk Hinrich, senior guard; then Collison.
"I guess I'm the best white guy on the team," he said.
The basketball players will showcase their dancing skills, or lack thereof, with the help of the spirit squad.
Kenny Howell, Crimson Girl co-captain, said the music was a variety of pop songs that people would recognize.
She said this year's line-up consisted of 90 percent dancing at the request of Roy Williams. The men's basketball sophomores added a surprise to this year's show with a dance they choreographed to the song "The Way We Ball" by Lil' Flip.
"You can only imagine," Lee said. "It will be fun but it's not going to look too good."
Doyle said she looked forward to the team's circle dance when Williams danced with his players because it was a crowd favorite. Duncan said her favorite part of the night was when the first skit began.
"The lights are down and then they come on and it's you and the basketball players and the fans," Duncan said. "It's amazing. I get goose bumps every time."
Both basketball teams and the spirit squad have been practicing from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m., every night this week.
Miles said the practices were long and the teams were tired, but they would be ready for tonight's show.
"It's chaotic the week before, but it always turns out Friday night," Duncan said. "I'm crossing my fingers."

Williams honored for coaching record
Kansas men's basketball coach, Roy Williams, will be awarded the John R. Wooden "Legends of Coaching" honor.
"It's sort of mind boggling to be honest with you," Williams said. In 14 seasons, Williams has a record of 388-93 (.807), giving
him the best winning percentage among all active Division I coaches with at least six years of experience. He has won more games in the first 14 years of a coaching career than anyone else in the history of the sport.
Williams has guided Kansas to 13 consecutive 20-win seasons, each of which led to an NCAA tournament appearance.
