HOROSCOPES
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Today is an 8
There's a break in the dam, but you have all the tools necessary to repair the damage and even create something positive from the flood. Get all the help you can.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Today is a 9
Others find themselves attracted to your game. Take advantage of developing confidence to complete stagnant projects. There are new cards that can be played now.
Todav is a 7
Gemini (Mav 21-June 21)
Don't follow your usual train of thought, or you'll find the same old limitations. Ride a new train, slow or high-speed, to discover a new destination.
Today is a 7
Cancer (June 22-July 22)
Disruptions at home could cause havoc at work. Friends are there to support you with extra loving. Cuddle up and listen. Your view isn't the only one.
A female shows you a missing puzzle piece. Don't gamble (except in love). Keep spending under control, and don't touch your savings. Do without one thing to gain another.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
You're smarter than usual for the next three weeks. Prioritize your obligations for best performance. Today's not necessarily great for romance, so entertain your intellect.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sent. 22)
Today is an 8

You're more industrious than before. There's an impulse to hurry, but there's no need for it. It's better to be methodical now and secure a job well done.
Distractions abound. You may need to regroup and redefine your goals. Don't give up. The difficult part is just about over. Keep your eye on the mark.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

In 1913, Conrad Hoffman became the secretary of the YMCA at the University, leaving his position as a professor of bacteriology at the University of Wisconsin.
The YMCA post was "an important non-governmental service performing a moral and social function during the First World War," Greenberg wrote in his article "Hoffman's Hawk."
Hoffman went to Germany in 1915, and it was common for him to receive presents, said the article, from the thankful prisoners who he worked with.
According to the article, the YMCA worked in prisoner-of-war camps in Germany, providing education and coordinating social and athletic activities for the prisoners. The YMCA also helped prisoners develop trades and hobbies by giving them tools and arranging exhibitions and sales of their artwork.
