HOROSCOPES
Life's good, but a spiral of self-doubt could shake things up. Draw or write down your worries and fears, and burn them to release their hold on you. Cast a new intention into the fire.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Today is an 8
Because the stars know things we don't.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Today is a 7
Rethink your roles at home and at work, and try something new. Use your experience to avoid a costly mistake. Don't spend your check before you get it. Patience pays.
Gemini (May 21-June 21)
Today is an 8
A dream may inspire a romance. Your friends are there to help. Most great innovation is sparked by an accident. Consider this when confronted by one.
Cancer (June 22-July 22)
Today is an 8
It may take something to sort fact from fiction. Stick to what you know to be so. Your standards and perceptions are challenged (which could be a good thing).
Leo (July 23-Aug.22)
Today is a 6
Now you're on a roller coaster. Will you laugh and scream and enjoy the ride, or cry the whole way, waiting to get off? You may go through both sensations before the day's out. It's temporary.

Find satisfaction in little things. It's okay to want to hide now and be private. There's time for social life later. Read the small print. Go over picky details.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Today is a 7
If you want to understand their point of view, put yourself in your partner's shoes. If things don't work the way you want, try again tomorrow. Look at it philosophically.
Today is an 8
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Find strength with structure. You could take on a home improvement or decoration project. Get in communication with a distant friend for advice. Use your connections.
Your imagination plays to your advantage now. Aim higher than usual to gain some ground, even if you miss the mark. Stash away winnings. Note the options that worked.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Today is an B
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Today is a 7
Devote time for artistic creation today. Express something abstract, symbolic and dreamy. Go for clear communications tomorrow. Read the instructions carefully.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Today is an 6
There's a fork in the road ahead.
A message from your dreams can point you in the right direction. The line between fact and fantasy may blur, so double-check the data.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Today is an 8
Don't forget to call if you'll be late for dinner. Don't get lost in nebulous daydreams without keeping an eye on the clock. You could make great progress in private.

OBITUARY
Rosellini met his wife, Ethel, when he was a young attorney defending a literary agent on trial for grand larceny. They got married in 1937, and were married for 64 years. She died in 2002.
King County Prosecutor Warren G. Magnuson hired Rosellini out of law school.
At age 101, former govenor passes away
In 1927, his father and a friend were arrested and charged with trying to smuggle drugs out of Mexico, according to a 1997 biography by Payton Smith. Gov. Rosellini reflected to Smith years later that his father's arrest in the home, the sensational headlines and visiting his father in federal prison made an indelible impression on him and motivated him to enter law school.
Former Washington Gov. Albert Roselli, a son of Italian immigrants who became the oldest living former governor in America, died Monday. He was 101.
Albert Dean Rosellini was born in Tacoma in 1910 and developed his characteristic work ethic as a child. He remembered selling newspapers at age 9 while also doing odd jobs for a woman for a penny a day.
In 1938, when he was 28 years old, Rosellini was elected to the state Senate and served for 18 years. He championed the creation of the medical and dental
A Democrat who always wore a rosebud on his lapel, Roselli served as governor for eight years ending in 1965. His tenure in office was defined by efforts to reform state prisons and modernize mental health institutions while shepherding through the creation of the 520 floating bridge that now bears his name.
He was a boxer in college and took three jobs to put himself through school, working as a butcher in Pike Place Market, working on an Alaska steamer and law clerk.
Rosellini's daughter, Lynn, recalled how he was able to connect with voters so quickly because of his ability to identify with average people and his interest in their concerns.
"He always said if he shook somebody's hand it was a vote," Lynn Rosellini said. "He would look at you like there was nobody else in the room."
The family said Rosellini's health had declined in recent weeks because of pneumonia. He died at a retirement community in Seattle.

"Friends said, you are well qualified but with your name and your religion you'll never make it in the state," he recalled 10 years ago.
He recalled battling prejudices about his Italian and Catholic heritage throughout his career.
In 1972, Rosellini made another run for governor, winning the Democratic primary but losing to Evans in the general election. Rosellini believed ethnic and religious prejudice defeated him, as bumper stickers at the time said: "Does Washington Really Need Another Godfather." The Oscar-winning film "The Godfather" was released the same year.
Rosellini went on to serve as governor from 1957 until 1965 before losing to Republican Gov. Dan Evans.
"That Mafia crap really hurt. Overnight, I dropped over 12 percent in the ratings. I don't think people believe it so much as it scared the hell out of them. They were scared away from me," he said during a 1986 interview with The Associated Press.
Colacurcio was later implicated in a 2003 campaign finance conspiracy relating to donations made to three City Council members, at a time he was seeking to expand a strip club parking lot. Rosellini helped deliver several of the campaign contributions, but was not charged.
After leaving politics, Rosellini went on to become a mentor for Democrats in the state, providing U.S. Sen. Patty Murray her first endorsement, helping fundraise for U.S. Sen. Cantwell and mentoring former Gov. Gary Locke. He also bonded with Evans, his longtime political foe.
Rosellini was friends with Seattle strip club magnate Frank Colacurcio Sr. and represented the fellow Italian-American during his early years as an attorney.
"One thing I really admired, he didn't just retire and disappear." Evans recalled Monday. "He kept working and was active right up to the last couple of years."
Locke, now U.S. ambassador to China, called Roselli a "dear friend and mentor."
In recent years, Locke organized special birthday parties for Rosellini, including one for his 100th birthday, which drew Washington's current governor and former governors as well.

ODD NEWS Thieves steal horse hair after cutting it off
A Montana woman says she knows it sounds mean, but she hopes her horse at least tried to kick the person that cut the hair off her tail.
She says it looks like whoever did it "it grabbed pretty fast and chooded."
Belgrade-area resident Alisha Novtny tells KTVM-TV that she noticed her mare, Raz, was missing the hair from her tail last Sunday morning.
Associated Press
Gallatin County authorities say this isn't the first time a horse owner in as area found an animal missing hair from its tail.
Novotny says horse hair can be valuable — especially white hair like Raz's — for making belts and bridles and key chains. She says she felt "violated" when she realized a stranger had been in the horse's pen.

700-pound statue stolen from park
Authorities in the San Francisco Bay area town of Novato are flapping about the theft of a park statue — a 700-pound bronze pelican.
The Marin Independent Journal says the statue, titled "Omay" — a Miwok Indian word for pelican — apparently was stolen over the weekend from a park near Scottsdale D pond.
The statue was commissioned by the city council in 2007 at a cost of $27,500. It is 9 feet tall with a 10-foot wingspan.
Novoato police said it may have been stolen for its metal but the motive isn't clear yet. They're offering a $1,000 reward for information leading to the thieves.
