HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Feb.26)
Be diligent from now through the summer and take the vacation of your dreams this autumn. Start by tightening your budget in April. Have fun and frolic through August, but save all you can. In October, pool your resources with another toward the same goal. November's the best time to travel, including a honeymoon. Start a new job in December. Encourage a friend's vision in January. A private discussion helps solve a problem in February. An unusual tactic could actually work.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) -
Today is a 7.
How long has it been since you had a new outfit? If it's been a while, go shopping. You need to be looking your best. You might get a very interesting proposition from a secret admirer soon. Don't just invest in your future, invest in your present, too.
Aries (March 21-April 19) - Today is a8.
Review your options with your partner this morning. List all the possibilities, with all of their pros and cons. Don't bow to pressure from one who doesn't really understand. If you go through this whole routine, you'll make a better decision, but do it quickly.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Today is an 8.
This should be a pretty good day for you, considering that the moon is in Libra. Both Taurus and Libra are ruled by Venus, which symbolizes love, so you're both hopelessly romantic. If you can put up with a Libran's incessant mind trips, you make a pretty good couple.
Gemini (May 21-June 21)
Today is an 8.
If you sit quietly for a while, you'll find something you never knew existed. Even more surprising, you've been walking past it every day. And it's beautiful. Make up a story about that. It'll be much better than the stuff that's been filling your head lately.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) - Today is a 7.
People will be more helpful than usual today. They don't like to see you grumpy. You're always there to comfort and cuddle them, so don't be surprised if they try to do the same thing back. They'll be awkward, but cute.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) -Today is a
7
You should be gathering information so you can make a big decision. Rely not only on the
written work and the advice of your friends, but also on your intuition. There's a lot more out there, and a Pisces can help you find it. A Libra can help you put it into words.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) - Today is a 7.
You're the one who actually builds the things all those other guys dream up. You really enjoy doing it, too. You greatly prefer that to a mechanical problem. If one of your tools isn't functioning properly, give it to an expert. You don't have to do everything.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) - Today is a 7.
There is a sense of pressure in the air, almost like there's too much humidity. People get their feelings hurt for what seems to be no reason at all. To maximize the effectiveness of these conditions, spend the day working on a creative project.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21)
Today is an 8.
Gather up all the little bits of paper with messages on them and complete each one. It always makes you feel better when you do that. A romantic interlude could go very well. Have it at your house.
Isolate the major issues, reach a compromise and make a decision that will last. If you want to be happy, pick the option that gives you the most independence. That's always the best kind of commitment for you to enter into. It's the one you can keep.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Today is a 7.
capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) - Today is a 7.
You can have everything you want and need. All you have to do is work for it. You already know this. You already do this. Review your options and visualize what you're going to make happen. Talk it over with that person who's standing in your path, and sell your dream.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Today is an 8.
What do you have that you can sell? Or what can you invent? There's no shortage of money out there. There's more being generated by imaginative people all the time. You might as well be one of them. Discuss the possibilities with an attractive intellectual during dinner.

Norway skier captures gold
The Associated Press
TRONDHEIM, Norway — Norway's Bjorn Dahlie won his second gold medal in the World Nordic Ski Championships yesterday, coasting to a 50.1-second victory over Finland's Mika Myllyla in the men's pursuit.
Prokuronov finished third, 50.7 seconds behind Dahlie, after losing an exciting duel down the stretch to Melula in the 15K freestyle finale.
Dahlie led the second part of the two-day event all the way. He started 28 seconds ahead of Russia's Alexei Prokurov after winning the 10-kilometer classical-style leg Monday.
Dahlie's total time was 1 hour, 11.1 seconds.
"I'm very happy," Dahlie said. "But I'm a little tired after these two races."
The local crowd, estimated at 60.000, was again inspirational.
"It was like Lillehammer all over again," said Dahlie, referring to the atmosphere in the 1994 Winter Olympics.
"For me it's very special to compete in Norway. Cross-country skiing means a lot to Norwegians.
They cheer not only for me. They cheer for every racer."
Dahlie won the Olympic pursuit three years ago but was only fifth in the 1995 worlds in Canada.
Dahlie's victory gave him an unmatched record of 21 medals in 29 Olympic or world championship; starts since his debut in the 1988 Winter Games at Calgary, Alberta.
Dahlie also won a silver medal in these championships in the opening 30K freestyle Friday.
He'll enter two more races, the 40K relay on Friday and the 50K classical-style marathon that traditionally ends the championships Sunday.
Prokurorov, the big surprise in the championships, now has one gold, one silver and one bronze medal. He won the 30K.
Rounding out the top 10 wore Thomas Alsaedar of Norway, Fulvio Valbusa of Italy, Jari Isometsa of Finland, Anders Bergstrom of Sweden, Vladimir Smirnov of Kazakhstan, Alois Stadlober of Austria and Silvio Fauer of Italy.
Patrick Weaver was the only American to finish the race, placing, 60th, 6 minutes and 56 seconds behind Dahlie.
Kreuter returns to White Sox lineup after shattering injury
Surgery, rehab help catcher recuperate from shoulder injury
The Associated Press
SARASOTA, Fla. — His shoulder was shattered like an eggshell.
der." Kreuter said.
Chad Kreuter wasn't sure he'd ever regain normal use of his left arm, much less catch another major league baseball game.
"From what the doctors and surgeons who have seen me said, they'd seen it in a motorcycle accident, where a guy gets hit by a car and then gets run over by the car or hits a tree and just severely crashes his shoul-
All Kreuter did was get hit at home plate last July by Kansas City's Johnny Damon. Parts of the collision are still fuzzy, even though Kreuter has watched replays.
The injury disintegrated the bone in his shoulder, with numerous small breaks that left it powder-like.
"In more than 20 years of baseball, it's one of the more dramatic fractures and injuries I have ever seen in a player," said Lewis Yocum, one of the Kreuter's surgeons.
"It's not an uncommon fracture with motorcycle accidents. To even contemplate professional sports is quite a coup."
But seven months after
surgery, Kreuter is back with the Chicago White Sox, hoping to be the backup catcher.
"Nobody expected him to come back the way he did," said trainer Herm Schneider.
"You wouldn't know really anything happened to him. It was a little bit like Humpty Dumpty."
Kreuter's biggest scare came just before he was scheduled for surgery, days after the season-ending injury.
He passed out in the shower. After being rushed to a hospital, tests revealed internal bleeding, a side effect of the trauma.
He spent five days in intensive care.
"I had lost four units of blood," Kreuter said. "It was its biggest significant amount."
During surgery, doctors used $40,000 worth of plates and screws to reconstruct his shoulder, which was shattered in eight places.
Kreuter's recovery got a boost from several of his teammates, who marked his No.12 on their caps.
"I wasn't with the team but half a year, spring training to July, and for that to happen, for them to make that statement, meant a lot to me," he said.
Then came months of rehabilitation.
And he did, with weights and
"At times I wanted to walk away," Kreuter admitted. "I knew what I had to do — if I wanted to come back here and play, I had to test my body."
long hours of work in a swimming pool. Now Kreuter is hoping to regain his position as the White Sox's backup catcher.
"It's going to be high maintenance, no cakewalk," he said. "But I never would have dreamed of being able to come back so fast and effectively."
Notes: The White Sox will hold their first intrasquad game today. ...
Manager Terry Bevington selected Jaime Navarro, Wilson Alvarez, James Baldwin and Doug Drabek as the starters for the first four exhibition games, beginning Friday in Fort Myers, Fla., against the Twins. ...
Reports in the Sarasota area say the Toronto Blue Jays are the likely
replacement for the White Sox at Ed Smith Stadium. The White Sox will move spring training to Tucson, Ariz., next year. The Blue Jays currently train in Dunedin, Fla.
"I knew what I had to do—if I wanted to come back here and play I had to test my body."
