HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Nov. 10).
Today's birthday (Nov. 10).
Your lesson is power: how to gain it, how to keep it and how to transmit it to others. That's a lesson you'll learn in October and November.
The more power you give away, the more you'll gain in return, and the more good you will do. Make sure you stay on course through December by putting in necessary corrections. From December through March, you'll be pushing hard for success.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 6.
You might feel as if you're being pushed to make a romantic commitment. Don't resist too hard, especially if this is in your own best interest. You tend to be something of a rebel. This time, you might gain more by graciously acquiescing to a loved one's demands. It could turn out to be great fun.
Taurus (April 20-May 20); Today is a 5. You're still in tough negotiations, but that's OK. The more you hold out for what you want, the more likely you are to get it. Conditions are shifting in your favor, but it hasn't happened quite yet. It's important for you to be firm about the most important parts of your requests, at least through the end of the week.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) Today is a 6.
You'll be gathering so much information and confidence today as you learn the ins and outs of what's going on that you'll emerge as a completely new person. When you went into this situation, you were in a daze. Now you're getting the wherewithal to reshape it to your specifications.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 7.
Money is coming in although it may not seem like enough. This is actually a feeling you bring with you. It seems as if there’s never enough, but don’t be dismayed. That’s the key to your success. Your natural tendency to hoard is what makes Cancer the sign of the millionaire.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22); Today is a 5.
You're strong and good looking, but you also are careful and considerate of others. Somebody in your life requires a lot of attention right now, so don't let all the energy go to feeding your own fantasies. Take care of somebody else's fantasies as well. That person can teach you something important.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22): Today is a 6.
You'll have to hustle to keep up with a demanding
person's requests, but that's OK. If you humor this
arrangent so-and-so now, you'll benefit later. You'll get
the reputation of being outstanding in your field, and
more business will come your way but hopefully not
from people who are this hard to deal with.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 6.
Somebody wants to tell you what to do, and you might decide it's not worth resisting. Don't do what the other person wants if you're going to end up with less rather than more. Hold out for the very best of everything.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21) Today is a 5.
What appears to be a problem could turn out to be a blessing. A person who's difficult to get along with is actually your best coach. Don't shut your ears to one who's saying something you don't want to hear.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Today is a 6.
You're wanting to go, but somebody is clamping a lid on your enthusiasm, or so it seems. Actually, just the opposite is true. It's important for you to learn restraint. It makes you more effective in the long run.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20); Today is a 7.
You'll have several problems today, and you might feel stuck more than once. Those moments will push you to exceed your normal level of creativity. What you end up with may be nothing you thought you'd get, but that's the risk you take when you let your imagination have free rein.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6.
Put as much as you can into a solid investment. This is called priming the pump. You put a little in now, you get a lot out later. This is not a gamble. It's more like backing a friend with encouragement. Toss in a little good advice, too, just to protect your investment.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 4.
Don't get into a battle between two people with eggs bigger than yours. Just steer them toward the right way of thinking. You have a good idea of what that is, but both seem off track. That's why they're arguing so enthusiastically. Provide the puzzle piece they're missing, and you'll end up looking like the hero.

SAN ANTONIO — Kim Engesner scored two goals Sunday, leading Nebraska to a 4-0 victory against Missouri for the Big 12 Women's Soccer Championship.
It was the second league tournament title in three years for the Commuskers. They were runners-up last year.
Engesser, Big 12 player of the year and the league's leading scorer, made the third and fourth goals for Nebraska in the second half, ending any hope for Missouri.
"The third goal was an important one," Engesser said. "It gave us a break in the game."
Injured American skier carves slower slopes
— Kansan staff reports
NEW YORK — The scars that run up and down Picabo Street's legs are
painful remainders of her frightening crash eight months ago in Switzerland.
But the real pain from the accident that shattered her left leg and tore up her right knee rests with the psyche of America's top skier, the 1998 Olympic gold medalist in the super G.
"I have a real strong feeling that I am going to be too afraid to run down-hill again," said Street, the lone American to win the World Cup down-hill crown.
"And if I am afraid to run downhill, I would be afraid to run super G.",
"Street said, her crutches nearby during a series of promotional appearances yesterday for the New York Ski and Snowboard Ball.
Instead Street, who won the world downhill title in 1995-96, will probably turn to the slalom and giant slalom events.
Her goal is to compete in 2000 and to race in the 2002 Olympics in Salt Lake City.
"That's America, baby, and I can't imagine passing it up," said the 27-year-old Street, who had full reconstructive surgery on her right knee four weeks ago.
"The world is not coming to Salt Lake City and me being on the sidelines watching," said Street, who hopes to be back on skis next spring.
Focusing on racing in the slower events, Street will be listening to her fears of going too fast again.
"It is going to be like, 'You are going to hit the fence again and blow yourself out again,' " said Street, who took an Olympic silver medal in the downhill in 1954. "Is it worth it?"
"That hurts me very much, but I've had a long-running stint with it, and it's been fun," said Street.
"You play hard, you pay hard. I am not so sure that I am ready to play that hard or pay that hard anymore."

NBA season still locked; sides not back negotiating
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — At the pace NBA owners and players are negotiating, the season may not start until 1999.
The two sides did not talk for the second straight day, and as the lockout entered its 132nd day, there was no sign when stalled negotiations would resume.
The start of the season already has been pushed back to mid-December. If talks don't start again soon, the season may not begin until next year, if at all.
The owners ended the most recent talks on Friday after 1/2 hours when the union was unwilling to back off its proposal of keeping 60 percent of the revenue. Players received 57 percent of revenue last season, prompting the league to reopen its labor contract.
The owners, who wanted to pay no more than 51.8 percent last season, want the percentage scaled back to 50 percent.
Union director Billy Hunter was angered Friday when the owners contacted players about the league's latest proposal, a move Hunter described as an attempt to divide the union. Hunter claimed efforts were underway in Boston, Cleveland, Miami and Milwaukee to get players to support the NBA's latest plan.
The union will spend the next few days contacting players to keep them abreast of developments. The negotiating committee will probably meet this week to discuss making a new proposal to the league.
In the first regular-season work stoppage in NBA history, three more games were lost Sunday, increasing the total to 48.
