HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Jan. 17). You and your team are unbeatable this year because you seem to have superhuman powers. You're the energizer and a friend's strategist in January. Don't let anybody else hold the purse strings in February. Follow a hunch quickly in March, and solve a big problem. By May you should have a simple routine. Empower another and you'll both win in July. Save some of September for quiet contemplation in a beautiful setting. Climb mountains in November. December could be costly if you're not careful. Turn down an option with additional expenses.
Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is a 4.
Is somebody trying to get you upset in order to gain an advantage? If so, stall. Your luck, power and influence will improve during the next few days, getting much better by next week.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) — Today is an 8.
You and your partner need to have a meeting. You should be planning a trip — one that's deductible. Tomorrow will be good for traveling
Gemini (May 21-June 21) — Today is a 5.
Something you say in jest could be used against you. Scheming is happening behind the scenes, but don't be paranoid. Keep quiet, especially if you don't know who's on which side yet.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) — Today is an 8.
Love could blossom for you, so set up an opportunity. If you've been waiting for the other person to call, don't. He or she may be too shy. If you get rejected, you didn't ask the right question of the right person.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 5.
Your partner is good at figuring things out, but today he or she seems to be running into a brick wall. Offer a shoulder to cry on.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Today is a 9.
Romance is in the air, so make time for it. Have a secret mid-day rendezvous. Anybody who thinks Virgos aren't passionate people doesn't know any very well. They're selective, that's all.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) — Today is a 5.
An argument could break out involving your living arrangements and money. You'd like to do what the other person wants, but you can't afford it. You can work out a compromise, but don't give away the store.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 9.
You're probably getting offers from people you never noticed before. Don't get into any trouble just to show off. Remember, you're even more enticing if you play hard-to-get.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today is a 4.
It's not easy to achieve what you have in mind, but that's your own fault. You're the one who picked the lofty goal. You wanted a challenge, remember? Time to hit the books!
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is an 8.
Your friends encourage you to try something you've never done before, but find out how much it will cost. Your friends' estimates may be a tad low.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is a 4.
A.
Someone wants to order you around and is not open to compromise. You may get a bonus if you comply. If it's against your principles, don't; if you merely don't like the person in charge, stifle.
piscis (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is an 8.
Something a foreigner soid or news you've received from far away has piqued your curiosity Plan a voyage now, but wait a while before taking action.

Allen announces hiring of new receivers coach
Conference schools, was named wide receivers coach for the Kansas football team yesterday.
"We are very excited to have a coach the caliber of Clarence James as an addition to our staff," said Kansas coach Terry Allen. "Clarence is an outstanding on-the-field teacher, and he will be a valuable addition as a recruiter."
James joins the Kansas staff after spending seven seasons at Oklahoma (1992-98), five seasons at Texas (1987-91), and five seasons at Texas Tech (1982-86). He most recently coached at Allen (Texas) High School.
James replaces Darrrell Wyatt on the Jayhawk staff. Wyatt recently resigned to join Oklahoma State's coaching staff.

Shanahan and Rhodes were assistants for San Francisco during the 1994 season. The 49ers won the Super Bowl in January 1995, and both men subsequently were hired as head coaches, Shanahan by Denver and Rhodes by the Philadelphia Eagles.
Rhodes became Shanahan's defensive coordinator yesterday, agreeing to a three-year contract with the Broncos. Team officials said Rhodes would sign the contract Monday.
Former Kansas City Chiefs coach Gunther Cunningham and Green Bay Packers defensive backs coach Bob Slowik also interviewed for the Denver job.
Robinson, hired as Kansas City's defensive coordinator on Monday, was fired Jan. 2 after six seasons with the Broncos, Shanahan said a change was necessary after Denver gave up 5.8 yards per play, ranked last in the NFL against the pass and 24th overall.
Schottenheimer hires familiar faces in D.C.
ASHBURN, Va. — Washington Redskins coach Marty
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
Schottenheimer added two familiar faces to his staff yesterday, hiring Jimmy Raye as offensive coordinator and Richard Mann as receivers coach.
Raye spent the last nine seasons with the Kansas City Chiefs, seven on Schottenheimer's
staff. He joined the Chiefs as an offensive assistant and tight ends coach, then spent five seasons with the running backs before Schottenheimer promoted him to offensive coordinator in 1998.
This will be Raye's fifth offensive coordinator job in the NFL, having held the position with New England in 1990, Tampa Bay in 1985-86 and St. Louis in 1984. He has also worked for San Francisco, Detroit and Atlanta during his 24-year pro coaching career.
Schottenheimer also has hired Mann before — with the Cleveland Browns in 1985. Mann has also coached with the Cofs in Baltimore and Indianapolis, the New York Jets and Baltimore Ravens. He spent the last two seasons as the receivers coach in Kansas City, arriving the season after Schottenheimer resigned.
Winfield, Puckett elected to Hall of Fame

NEW YORK — Kirby Puckett and Dave Winfield were elected yesterday to Cooperstown, becoming the seventh pair of teammates voted into the Hall of Fame by baseball writers in the same year.

*This is really, really an elite group
name it. It's just unbelievable being in the company of those guys."
Winfield, who had 3,110 hits and 465 home runs, and Puckett, whose All-Star career was cut short by glaucoma, played together on the Minnesota Twins in 1993-94.
Winfield became a star with the San Diego Padres, gained national recognition with the New York Yankees and delivered the game-winning hit in the 1992 World Series with the Toronto Blue Jays.
Puckett was an All-Star in 10 of his 12 seasons and led the Twins to
unlikely World Series titles in 1987 and 1991.
Induction ceremonies will be held Aug, 5 at Cooperstown, N.Y. The festivities will include anyone selected by the Veterans Committee on March 6 at Tampa, Fla.

"I just lost it when I saw that blood, and I was truly, truly in the wrong." Camby's punch did not strike Danny Ferry of San Antonio because coach Jeff Van Gundy stepped between them at the last moment. Camby's head collided with Van Gundy's, opening a cut above the coach's left eye that required 12 to 15 stitches.
PURCHASE, N.Y. — A contrite Marcus Camby awaited word yesterday on punishment for throwing a punch at an opponent but instead decking his own coach.
Camby had scrapes above both his eyes yesterday — one from being poked by Ferry, one from colliding with his coach. Van Gundy's eye also remained swollen.
While josting for rebound position, Ferry struck Camby in the eye late in the fourth quarter of New York's 104-82 victory against the Spurs Monday. After being restrained by one referee and speaking with another, Camby suddenly bolted toward Ferry near the scorer's table and threw a roundhouse punch.
No announcement was forthcoming yesterday from NBA vice president of operations Stu Jackson regarding a suspension, a league representative said.

Rowers spend break at Texas in successful training session
By Jay Mullinix
By Jay Mullinix sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
As many students spent the end of their winter breaks relaxing and enjoying a little less stress, the women's rowing team was doing its part to keep business rolling for the Band-Aid company.
Break came to a quick halt on Jan. 3 for the 40 varsity rowers as they headed to Austin, Texas and the University of Texas boat house to have their annual winter training session, which lasted through Saturday.
For the rowers, it was a period of intense and physically exhausting training in which the brunt of the work was spent on perfecting technique for the upcoming spring season. Two-a-day practices were held, with each morning beginning with rowing anywhere between 15 and 21 miles.
“It's an intense time,” said Rob Catloth, Kansas rowing
coach. "We eat, sleep and row, and that's pretty much all that we do."
Such a heavy workload takes quite a toll and ensures a plentiful supply of bandages is a top priority.
"It's real tough. You should have seen our hands," said Heather Muir, Eden Prairie, Minn., senior. "We'd go through four or five boxes of Band-Aids every day because of all the work."
From his vantage point,
Catloth said the winter
training period was one of
the best the team has had.
"I was very pleased with how it went," he said.
Muir added if the past was any indicator, this spring could turn out to be quite a season for the Jayhawks.
"Winter training has
seemed to be a good predictor of how the season will go, and we were very good, so I'm pretty excited about the spring," she said.
Winter training was part of year-long competition for Kansas. The fall season includes regattas, which span roughly three miles under bridges and around curves. The spring season includes 2,000 meter sprint races and the NCAA Championships.
In the meantime, the team had a little time to let its hands heal before starting off-season conditioning and weight lifting today. Full-time practice will then follow on Jan. 29.
Competition begins Feb. 24 with the Indoor Ergometer Race in Anschutz Sports Pavilion. The outdoor season starts on March 24 as the Jayhawks head back to Austin to take on Texas.
