Horoscopes
Aries (March 21-April 19)—Today is an 8—Now, this is more like it! You still have to be careful with money but your mood has improved. So has your love life. If dinner out is not affordable, have dinner in. That might work out better anyway.
Rating System: 10 is the easiest day, 0 is the most challenging.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)—Today is a 5—Take it slow and easy today. Words have meaning, especially the words you say now. You could find the perfect property soon. If you're not in a position to buy yet, start saving.
Cancer (June 22-July 22)—Today is an 8—A friend can help you get the money you want and need. The trick is to learn how to earn it. Heed advice from one who's almost as thrifty as you are. The boss is in an extravagant mood. Offer to do more for a raise.
Gemini (May 21-June 21)—Today is an 8—Your luck has improved today. You're also smarter and more assertive. Try something that's a little beyond your present abilities. Just be cautious and sensible. Read up on if first.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) —Today is a 7— Finish up old stuff today. Go through that pile of messages and answer them all. If you can pay off a bill completely, your whole attitude will improve. Don't start new projects or buy anything.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Today is a 7—
You are bound to remember about six
important things that need to be done today. Do them as quickly as possible because more are coming soon. Don't get in between two battling egos. You'll get squashed fat!
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)—Today is an 8—Schedule a lunch date with your craziest friends. You need the bread. Don't get carried away and buy something awful, like a giant slab of cherry chocolate cheese cake. Well, if you must, split it among the group.
Sunday, (Oct. 24-Nov. 31)—Today is a
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21)—Today is a 5-Slow down and deliberate again. Conditions are excellent for hardball negotiations. Everybody's got a different agenda. To protect your own interests, figure out what they all want and need.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)—Today is an 8--You're facing a dilemma. On the one hand you want to go out and play. On the other you want to keep your job. If you can manage to do both, you deserve a raise. This is not a good day to ask for one, however.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)—Today is a 7—Carefully consider a financial deal today. Don't be enticed by fancy gadgets; get what you need and let it go at that. You're going to be stuck with what you choose for a long time, so read the fine print.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb.18)—Today is a 6—The competition is fierce today. You'll have to use every ounce of your imagination to keep up, much less get ahead. You may even have to give in a little bit. Do it gracefully and carefully.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)—Today is a
7-get back to work, big time! Concentrate
on what you're doing and it will get easier.
Don't let anybody rush you, though. Learn
at your own pace and you'll never forget the
lesson or the material.

NBA approves sale of 76ers
Telecommunications giant buys struggling franchise
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The NBA Board of Governors yesterday officially approved the sale of the Philadelphia 76ers, who are owned by Harold Katz, to telecommunications giant Comcast Corp., a month after the papers were signed.
New president Pat Croce promised to resurrect the falling franchise.
"Everyone who really knows me knows I don't go into this to lose," Croce said. "I want everybody in the city of Philadelphia and the suburbs to be proud of our Sixers."
Croce said he knows it takes a winner to boost fan support.
"How many times do you see people wearing our jackets? Our laper pins? Our logos? You don't see it now, but you will," he said.
One of Croce's top candidates for the GM job, the Orlando Magic's John Gabriel, took himself out of the running after signing a new contract with the Magic on Tuesday.
His first major executive decision will be naming a new general manager. Current coach and general manager John Lucas is interested only in coaching, but isn't even assured of keeping that post.
"Hopefully by mid-May or the end of May, we'll have someone," Croce said. "John's going to be evaluated as the coach — at his request. It doesn't at all have to be someone with a Philadelphia connection."
Katz, whose 15th and final season ended with an 18-64 record, said the 76ers and Croce were a good mix.
"Pat is a good man. Pat's hyper; off the wall. He will run a very good business," Katz said.
Katz, whose team won an NBA championship in 1983, said he wished he had gone out on a winning note.
"Leaving without a winning team is my number one regret by far. Also I am really concerned about John Lucas," he said. "I do think he's going to get burned. To me, he's like a son, a little brother."
Katz said he didn't have any immediate plans to return to basketball.
"In this business, you're in it for one reason only — to have fun. And the only way to have fun is winning. What I do now," Katz said, "is count the cash."
Rodman antics under control
Chicago teammates unite to support each other during emotional championship time
The Associated Press
CHICAGO — The hair colors, the tattoos, the body piercing. All are part of the Dennis Rodman image, one he's marketed heavily and cultivated greatly since joining the Chicago Bulls.
No head-butting please, no outbursts against officials, no technical fouls or ejections, and especially no suspensions as the Bulls try to top off the NBA's best-ever regular season with another title.
But there's the other side to the NBA's best rebounder and that's what the Bulls don't want to see in this, the most emotional time of the season.
As a team, the Bulls are perhaps the best-paid support group ever assembled. And they'll need to stay that way to help Rodman, whose postseason antics a year ago — arguing with his coach and refusing to join team huddles — hurt San Antonio's chances for a championship.
Bulls Coach Phil Jackson said his team understood that they must provide support for themselves and for each other.
And Dennis, of course, needs that and they need to rely on Dennis staying away from the officials, first, and not trying to bait them, secondly," Jackson said.
"If there is a confrontation and situation, Luc and the centers are supposed to step in front of him and keep him at bay," Jackson said, of Luc Longley.
Rodman, who drew a six-game suspension this season for head-butting an official during a game in New Jersey, wasn't talking yesterday except for a television show he was taping.
Earlier, he said he had expected the Heat and coach Pat Riley to try and rile him up.
"Pat Riley's going to do all he can to send someone purposely out there to beat me up and to get me to blow up. But it's not going to happen," Rodman said after the season finale against Washington.
Riley insisted that was not part of his plan, even though Rodman became frustrated by Miami's tough efforts in blocking him off under the basket and also with the officiating when the Heat dealt the Bulls one of their 10 losses.
"They're assuming something that's simply not true," Riley said. "We're working very hard to keep him off the boards, very hard. He's a very physical player. He shouldn't be talking about that stuff as much as he pushes and shoves and leans."
The Heat's effort against Rodman in that earlier game was one of the featured areas of a lengthy film session yesterday. When Rodman got frustrated during that loss, Jackson pulled him early and he managed only 11 rebounds.
Heat center-forward Chris Gatling said Miami just wanted to make sure it knew where Rodman was when a shot went up.
"We do have a plus because he's not in good eyes with the refs, so we might be able to pick up calls, but we can't rely on that," Gatling said.
"He realized it was a no-win situation," said Bulls backup center James Edwards, Rodman's teammate from championship years in Detroit.
Since returning to the Bulls on April 2 after his suspension for head-butting, Rodman, who has claimed that some officials are picking on him, has been well-behaved.
"He finally realized that the refs are going to have the final say. People think he's dumb, but he's a smart guy."
