HOROSCOPES
Aries: Today is a 7.
If you're doing what you love, they say the money will fallow. If you're not doing what you love, you certainly should be. Everybody should be, but you more than most. If you're miserable, everybody's miserable. When you smile, the whole world smiles with you. So, be happy! And, if you're not doing what you love, change jobs!
Taurus: Today is a 8.
Conditions have just changed again, in your favor. For the next several weeks, you're luckier than usual with love. Today, you're just about as lucky as you will be for quite a while. So, if you have a hunch, follow through on it! Move quickly, though. This opportunity won't last.
Gemini: Today is a 7.
Arithmetic is probably not your strong point. Think of a goal so enricting, so exciting, that it will get you eager to cozy up with the numbers. How about a trip to Europe? Done that yet? This can be yours through the magic of saving. The earlier you begin, the more you'll have later. It's elementary. Do the math.
Cancer: Todav is a 8.
Working with a partner is your key to success again today. You both do better together than apart. Conditions are changing in your favor, too. You may have been successful for the past few days, but you've had to work at it. Soon, you can learn a way to achieve your goals much more easily.
Leo: Today is a 8.
For the past few weeks, you may have defended your position and made sure everybody considered your opinion. You've probably emerged as a strong leader even though you had to compromise on a couple of minor points. Now, for a few weeks, your attention will be on the bottom line.
Virgo: Today is a 8.
You've just undergone a transformation, but you probably look the same on the outside. You're getting much more confident on the inside. It's partially because of things you've been through lately, what you've done and your interaction with other people. And, it's partially because conditions changed. You're luckier now.
Libra: Today is a 6.
Scorpio; Today is a 7.
Sagittarius: Today is a 7.
The battle you've been fighting is almost won. It's not entirely because of what you've done, either. It's partly due to a change in the climate. You'll be slightly luckier starting today. The luck will show up through your friends. So, today and always, celebrate with them.
The pressure is increasing. Sometimes you get away with a quick once-over result because you're so charming. People hesitate to make you do it over. That used to be how it was, and maybe it's that way again someday. For the next four weeks, strive to do it right. If you don't, you'll hear about it.
Capricorn: Today is a 9.
Aquarius: Today is a 5.
Finally, some relief The sun transit into Virgo brings you out of the drums and into a refreshing breeze. Where you were stuck before, now you break free. Run, dance, celebrate. Who cares if it's a Monday? You've worked late lots of times!
If you can get this financial thing figured out, you'll be ahead. There's usually a paper trail, but yours may have dried up. You'll find out what really happened, if you follow the money. It could lead you to somebody in authority. Don't give up; this could get interesting.
Pisces; Today is a 5.
You'll hustle this morning. The stock of things you left over the weekend seems to have grown. Who put this new demand on top, the one that was supposed to be done yesterday? Better do that one first. And, do it perfectly. It will be graded.
A partnership is a special kind of relationship. You have very different skills. You don't always understand each other, or even get along. If you can manage to keep after the same goal, you'll get further. One is the booster, the other is the rocket. Doesn't matter which is which. You could even trade off.

Nebraska receiver charged with sexual assault
LINCOLN, Neb. — Nebraska receiver Shevin Wiggins was arrested and charged Friday with sexual assault of a child for allegedly fondling two 14-year-old girls outside a foster home, Lancaster County authorities said.
Wiggins, 24, and another man, Floyd Brown, 22, are accused of touching the girls late July 25 or early July 26 inside a camper in the driveway of the home near Lincoln, Sheriff Terry Wagner said.
Wiggins and Brown were arraigned Friday in Lancaster County Court after Wiggins voluntarily appeared
with his attorney and Brown was taken into custody at his home.
Wiggins, is a starting receiver for the Cornhuskers, and is best known for kicking a football into the arms of teammate Matt Davison for a last-second touchdown at the Cornhuskers rallied to beat Missouri 45-38 in overtime in 1997.
Both men posted bonds of $10,000 and were released from jail. A third unidentified man involved in the incident has not been arrested. Warner said.
Nebraska coach Frank Solich said Wiggins was indefinitely suspended from the team until the facts of the case are clear. He said Wiggins would
not be allowed to practice or play in games during his suspension.
"It's unfortunate certainly for Shevin and all of us," Solich said. "I don't know the facts of the case. I only know that for all the years Shevin has been with the team he's never been in any trouble."
Wiggins, a native of Palmetto. Fla., was granted a sixth year of eligibility by the NCAA in April after an earlier ruling on eligibility for student with disabilities was reversed. Wiggins has a reading disability.
The arrests followed an investigation into allegations by the two girls, Wagner said.
One of the girls told police she was asleep in the living room of the foster home when she was awakened by one of the men, according to an affidavit for an arrest warrant. She said the man led her to the porch where another girl and two other men were waiting.
The three men and two girls then entered the camper where the girl said Wiggins removed her clothes, the affidavit said. The girl told police she was fondled by Wiggins and another man, the affidavit said.
Brown denied inappropriate contact. Sexual assault of a child is a felony punishable up to 5 years in prison and a $10,000 fine.
