HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Feb. 13).
The tougher the challenge, the more you'll love it. To achieve the perfection you're after, keep practicing. Choose reality instead of fantasy in February. A setback in April only renews your fighting spirit. Memorize the rules in May, and forget your inhibitions with true love in June. You can see treasure in July, even if you can't quite get it yet. Your plan is put to the test in November, and you also see the light that month.
Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is a 6.
Your team faces tough competition. You can cheer teammates on, but it won't be enough. You also need to help them work out a strategy. That's what the other guys are doing.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) Today is a 5.
Don't just do as you're told; think about it. An older person's scheme may have a fatal error, so proceed with caution. You can figure out a better way, but it may take a couple of days.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) — Today is a 6.
New assignments may force you to postpone travel. If you can wait until Thursday or Friday, you'll have fewer delays en route. The chores you do before then are frustrating, but it'll be great to have them done.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) Today is a 5.
Review your budget with your sweetheart and/or children, and come up with some sort of long-term plan. First, set an exciting goal. You may not have enough to get there yet, but don't quit. That's why you are making that plant Keep working.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 6.
During the next few days, what you want and what you get could be two different things. Someone may have trouble following your directions, so close supervision is recommended for any job you delegate.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Today is a 5.
You're still running into a few bugs, but don't despair. You'll find them all by about Thursday.
Consider it sort of a treasure hunt, even if it seems more like sweeping a minefield. Hey, they wouldn't ask you to do it if they didn't think you could, right?
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) — Today is a 7.
Your loved one or child may soon be disappointed that something isn't affordable. Tell him or her to focus on education and not to be dismayed if it takes a while to reach a goal. This is good for them, so don't cave in.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Today is a 5.
You pretty much have control of the situation, although you may not think so, because you keep discovering things you don't like. Keep telling yourself that you'll have a strong foundation by the time you're done.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today is a 6.
Review your work before you hand it in, because it may have errors. You don't get extra points for hurrying, so take your time and do it right.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) --- Today is a 4.
A slick, persistent salesperson could try to talk you into spending money. Is the salesperson's product helpful, or is this person trying to meet a quote? To find out, stall.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is a 5.
Your latest proposal is apt to come under close scrutiny in the next few days. Just fix the things the inspector finds; don't make a big deal of it. It's part of doing the job right.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is a 6.
Some of your basic beliefs might be challenged, and you may decide to re-examine them yourself. Only let go of the stuff weighing you down. You'll be able to identify the truth, because it will set you free.

Travolta was a double nominee in the worst actor category, getting nominations for Battlefield Earth and Lucky Numbers. In addition to Travolta and Sandler, worst actor nods also went to Leonardo DiCaprio (The Beach) Sylvester Stallone (Get Carter) and Arnold Schwarzenegger (The 6th Day).
Worst actress nominees were Kim Basinger (Bless the Child and I Dreamed of Africa), Melanie Griffith (Cecil B. Demented), Madonna (The Next Best Thing), Bette Midler (Isn't She Great) and Demi Moore (Passion of Mind).
The Golden Raspberry Foundation won't have a ceremony this year to present its $4.27 trophy, a gold-painted, golf-ball sized plastic raspberry atop a film canister.
Razzies to award 2000's worst movies
Worst director nominees: Joe Berlinger for *Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2*, Steven Brill for *Little Nicky*, Roger Christian for *Battlefield Earth*, Brian DePalma for *Mission to Mars* and John Schlesinger for *The Next Best Thing*.

The foundation has 503 voting members consisting of critics, filmgoers and people who work in the entertainment business. Winners will be announced March 24 during a news conference on the eve of the Academy Awards. (Oscar nominations are announced today.)
LOS ANGELES — John Travolta's Battlefield Earth, which got gleefully vicious reviews when it came out last May, now has even more marks of dis-stinktion.
Still, the sentiment against Battlefield Earth is more overwhelming than than it was against Sougheirs, which wound up winning seven. Raspberry founder John Wilson said, "I'd say Battlefield is pretty much a sho-in."
Adam Sandler's Little Nicky, Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2 and The Next Best Thing tied for second in the dishonor list with five nominations apiece. The Flintstones in Viva Rock Vegas joined them in the worst picture category.
The movie received eight Razzie nominations — worst picture, director, screenplay, actor, screen couple and three supporting actors — as the Golden Raspberry Foundation picked contenders yesterday for 2000's worst movies.
Showgirls is the all-time Razzie Award nomination leader with 13, but the number of categories has been trimmed to nine.
