You are the center of attention and let it be known that today is your birthday. Call up some friends and let celebrate. Aries: Today is a 6 Avoid group activities that require stuffing your ego back into its cave. Any hint of self-promotion could be taken as an act of aggression. Generosity invites trouble today. Taurus: Todav is an 8. Today you feel strong enough to publicly announce your secret romance. Appearances matter more than you think they should. It only takes one note to turn discard into harmony. Gemini: Today is a 5. Explanations go nowhere today. Friends, co-workers, or neighbors refuse to accept what is glaringly obvious to you. Save your breath for a time when people are more willing to listen. Cancer: Today is an 8. Your job today is to romance and enlighten the world. By trading on commonly accepted hopes and images, you can befriend even the grouchiest, most antisocial people. Selfless ambition makes you beautiful. Leo: Today is a 6.

SPORTS BRIEFS AND SCORES Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only. Paradis, 53, was notified of his termination on Tuesday, his daughter, Jana, said. Calls to his Topeka home Thursday were not answered. Topeka's WIBW fires sportscaster Paradis TOPEKA—Ron Paradis, whose sports broadcasting career in Topeka spanned four decades, has been fired by WIBW-TV. WIBW issued a statement Wednesday which said in part that "Ron's departure comes as part of an ongoing evaluation of WIBW-TV's news, sports, weather and programming." The release did not give a specific reason for Paradis' termination, and general manager Kirk Black declined further comment on Thursday. Paradis, a three-year basketball letterman at Kansas State University, had been with WIBW since 1969. He was a five-time Kansas broadcaster of the year, as selected by the National Sportscasters and Sportswriters Association. Paradis was WIBW-TV's sports director for most of his time in Tomeka, giving up that title in 1995. He is probably best known for SportsTalk, the radio call-in show that he began in the early 1980s. He was host of the show until the spring of 1995. Jana Paradis said Wednesday that her father's future plans are uncertain.
