HOROSCOPES
Today's birthday (Sept. 24):
Just as the past year has had its ups and downs, this year will be the same. One tip, however: Do not buy excess monkeys. They throw their feces.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 4
Your intense inward focus on your own health may be making things seem worse than they really are. Turn your gaze outward and look for new projects. Your mood might cause co-workers to be abrupt with you.
Taurus (April 20-Mav 20): Todav is an 8
Hours (april 20-May 20): today is an 8
You are wealthy and powerful when others give you
the attention and respect you deserve. Being a good host is surprisingly effortless today. Flowers are an inexpensive but effective means of communication.
Gemini (May 21-June 22): Todav is a 7
Be very literal with your words during important discussions with children. Pay special attention to signals today, whether in conversation or on the road. Asking too many questions could make someone nervous.
Cancer June 23-July 22): Today is a7
Cancer (June 23-July 22): Today is a7
This is a good day to hatch those ideas you have been sitting on in the comfort of your nest. The bread has risen in the oven, its scent attracting wondering noses from far and wide. The fruit is ripe and ready for the market.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 9
You may please a boss or client today by keeping your strong personality out of business matters. Something that you generally value does not seem important right now. Change something in your diet if your lower energy level concerns you.
Virgo (Aug. 22-Sept. 22): Today is an 8
Virgo (Aug. 22-Sept. 22): Today is an 8 You are in a unique position to identify and control the details that make up your life. Tidy up, take inventory and retool or rebuild your system. Logic rules your world today, and everything makes perfect sense.
Libra [Sept. 23-Oct. 22]: Today is a 6
Anything more than one-on-one interaction could be too much for you to handle today. What begins as amusing may become overwhelming if it persists. An excess of female energy unbalances a system.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Today is a 9
Today you find that giving is more powerful than
receiving. You have a surplus of something that is in
great demand among those in your community.
Friends rally around an innovative idea.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is an 8 Go someplace today where they don't discuss politics and do a little research into human nature. You feel lucky, positive and willing to build something new. A moderate amount of self-discipline will help.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 3
Whether he knows it, an authority figure is driving you crazy. Read between the lines in legal or travel matters. This is a good day to find something that makes you laugh long and hard.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 2
Personal preferences may cloud your business dealings today. Listen to someone's intentions instead of the words they use. The unconventional approach is sometimes the best solution to a problem.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 1
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Today is a 1
It's not advisable to leap before you look, but today there may not be time to do anything else. Drink or drugs might slow your reflexes to dangerous levels.
Be aware of your surroundings and the people with whom you might interact.
Magic's Scott protests management criticism
The forward contends that the team has criticized his personal life and told outsiders that he has little trade value.
SPORTS BRIEFS AND SCORES
ORLANDO, Fla. - Dennis Scott plans to skip training camp next month, protesting what he says are disparaging comments by Orlando Magic management.
"They keep threatening me, so my threatening back," Scott said. "I wanted to be part of this team. This is my home and I love it here. But they keep telling me they don't want me."
Scott said he expected to be traded to the Dallas Mavericks or the Portland Trail Blazers. But Magic general manager John Gabriel said no trade was imminent.
Gabriel said he wasn't aware of Scott's threat to miss camp, which is scheduled to start Oct. 3. Scott is in the final year of a three-year contract estimated at $3 million this season.
Earlier this month, two people were wounded by gunshots and fights broke out at a birthday party Scott held for himself outside Washington.
This summer, the Magic reprimanded Scott for a profanity-filled tirade in front of children at his basketball camp.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — For Monday Night Football fans who were watching the game between Pittsburgh and Jacksonville, here's
ABC sign-off Monday fouls game outcome
some news: The final score was 30-21, not 29-21.
The confusion came after Jacksonville's Chris Hudson returned a blocked field goal attempt 58 yards for a touchdown on the final play of the Jaguars' victory against the Steelers.
Val Pinchbeck, the NFL's vice president for broadcasting and the league's official observer at the game, said the rules stipulate that an extra point is required on a touchdown on the final play of regulation.
Some fans apparently were confused because ABC went off the air as soon as Hudson scored, believing the final score was 29-21. Instead, it was 30-21.
and the outcome apparently no longer in doubt, referee Gerry Austin announced that the field would have to be cleared so the extra point could be kicked.
As players and photographers ran on the field, and ABC signed off the air with time expired
