AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Today is a 9

Today is a 7
It's not a good time for romance, but be nice anyway. A practical partner guides. Draw three things you want. Dream big. Then play big and go for it.

Abercromie sues 'Jersey Shore' cast for label use
NEW YORK  The Situation doesn't usually require a lot of motivation to lose the shirt. But Abercrombie & Fitch wants him to go one further  the company has offered to pay "Jersey Shore"cast members to stop wearing clothes carrying their brand.
The retailer said Tuesday it would pay a "substantial payment"
to Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino or any cast member who stops wearing its clothing on the show because the series is "contrary to the aspirational nature of the brand."
It may seem strange that a brand that employs half-naked models to stand outside its stores and courted controversy with racy catalogs has come out with such a campaign against the hard partying cast.
The news came as Abercrombie, based in New Albany, Ohio, reported strong second-quarter results, fueled by international growth.
Sorrentino did not return requests for comment and there was no word at press time whether anyone in the cast accepted the offer.

Thirsty boy gets lodged in chimney in quest for drink
WEST VALLEY CITY, Utah — An 8-year-old boy desperate for a drink tried to get into a neighbor's home by sliding down the chimney, but got stuck for more than four hours, authorities said.
West Valley City police Sgt. Robert Hamilton said the thirsty boy climbed a tree to get onto the home's roof, then slid down the chimney feet first on Friday. The boy made it 30 feet down the chimney before he became wedged between the basement and main floor.
Hamilton said the boy, who lives several blocks away, recently had been in the house for a play date with a grandchild visiting the family who lives there. The family, who had gone out to dinner, returned home to hear a boy crying in the chimney, Hamilton told the Salt Lake Tribune and Desertet News.
Because of the narrowness of the chimney, as well as its twists and turns, rescuers could not pull out the child with a rope, Hamilton said. They cut an 8-by-5-foot hole
"I was haunted by the fact we had this child in our chimney," said the homeowner, Richard Draper.
The boy "was surprisingly very calm on scene. His only worry was he was still thirsty when we got there." Hamilton said. The boy was able to move his arms, so rescuers dropped water to him.
in a wall to free the boy, who escaped with little more than scrapes and bruises.
Hamilton said he didn't know who would pay for the repair the hole in the home.
A firefighter carried the soot-covered boy to his mother, who reported him missing earlier.
