MOON ALERT: There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions. The moon is in Virgo.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

This is a pleasant day; nevertheless, you will have to put your own emotional considerations second to those of others. This doesn’t mean you’re being a martyr — it’s simply meeting the situation as it is. That’s life. You might receive an exciting health tip.

Babygirl star Nicole Kidman is 59 today.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

Enjoy warm relations with others, especially children. Romance will be exciting and have greater emotional depth than usual. Social outings will appeal. In particular, the arts, the theatre, museums and sports will be enjoyable activities for you.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

This is the perfect day to relax. Find a way to retire to your own private space so you can take it easy and enjoy the reassurance of familiar surroundings. A conversation with a female family member might take place. Enjoy the beauty of your daily world.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

You’re chatty and eager to learn the latest gossip and catch up on news. Short trips, conversations with siblings, relatives and neighbours, and a chance to see new faces and places will please you. Enjoy shopping for something pretty for yourself and for loved ones.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

You identify with something you own more than usual. You want to take care of it or admire it. (You certainly don’t want to lend it.) This is actually a good day for you to buy wardrobe items for yourself. You’ll also enjoy active and competitive interactions with friends and groups.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Things will tend to go your way. Why not ask the universe for a favour? After all, you look fabulous because the sun is at the top of your chart casting you in a flattering spotlight. Say yes if you’re asked to take on extra responsibilities, because you’ll shine. A secret love affair might begin.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Conflicting influences exist for you. In one way, you want to hide and enjoy your own privacy (with good food and drink). However, another influence makes you want to get out there and fly your colours. In fact, you want to travel. It’s your call.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Your emotional contact with friends is important to you. You might feel more protective or supportive than usual to someone. Possibly, this same attitude applies to a group. This is also a good day to examine your overall goals in life. How well are you doing at the art of living?

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You are noticed. In fact, some people will know personal details about your private life for some reason. Don’t worry about this. But do remember you need more sleep right now. Be patient with partners and close friends.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Try to do something different because you’re restless for adventure. Obviously, travel would be an excellent choice. But if you can’t get away, then explore your own neighbourhood or city. Meet new people. Learn new information through books, film and talking to others.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

This is a pleasant time for you, which is why you want to socialize and explore fun outings. Relations with partners and friends are also reassuring and supportive. Discussions about shared property, taxes or debt might come up. You’ll handle this.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

Ideally, you have to go more than halfway when dealing with others to make everything copacetic. (It’s not a big deal.) Home and family are your focus right now. Relations with co-workers are especially rewarding — perhaps even romantic.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Actress Nicole Kidman (1967) shares your birthday. You’re curious, idealistic and can think on your feet. You’re also outgoing, exuberant and intuitive. This is a year of wrapping things up and moving on, because you are finishing a nine-year cycle. Take inventory of your life. Do some internal and external housecleaning. Commune with nature.

Former Tory cabinet minister runs for Brandon trustee

Abiola Odutola 4 minute read Yesterday at 2:01 AM CDT

BRANDON — Jim McCrae, a former attorney general of Manitoba, has registered to run for a seat on the Brandon School Division board of trustees.

McCrae, 77, had a long political career as a Tory cabinet minister and before that, a Brandon city councillor.

He said his decades of public service and education experience have prepared him to contribute to the governance of the school division.

“My last cabinet position was as minister of education and training. I travelled extensively in Manitoba and met with many teachers and others involved with the education of our children,” McCrae told the Brandon Sun.

Ignoring the facts makes for a better budget story

Dan Lett 6 minute read Tuesday, Sep. 29, 2020

In Premier Brian Pallister's world, the public accounts for the 2019-2020 fiscal year serve as the ultimate good news story.

The final accounting of government revenues and expenditures, the public accounts show a small surplus of $5 million. According to Pallister, this was accomplished without much pain for Manitobans, who can now share in the knowledge that finally, mercifully, the books are balanced.

Of course, in accentuating the positive, Pallister had to ignore a few things.

Such as tens of thousands of government workers who have gone without a pay increase for three years. And a health-care system that, despite an influx of funds last year, continues to suffer from three years of crippling underfunding. And infrastructure spending that has been cut back by hundreds of millions of dollars. And an education system in chaos from the dual pressures of austerity and pandemic upheaval.

Browns QB Deshaun Watson reinjures Achilles, has surgery and will miss ‘significant’ time in 2025

Tom Withers, The Associated Press 4 minute read Friday, Jan. 10, 2025

CLEVELAND (AP) — Deshaun Watson's already unstable future with the Browns is even shakier.

Watson may miss the entire 2025 season after Cleveland's polarizing quarterback ruptured his Achilles tendon for the second time in three months and underwent another operation that could put his career in jeopardy.

The setback could end Watson's unsteady stay with the Browns, who believed they had ended their decades-long search for a franchise quarterback when they signed the former Pro Bowler to a historic $230 million contract in 2022.

But things haven't worked out — for either side — and the newest development could lead to a permanent separation between Watson and the team.

Lights, sports and land: a wish list for West Broadway

Rebecca Chambers 4 minute read Yesterday at 2:01 AM CDT

Mayor Scott Gillingham would like us to phone our MLA regarding safety concerns in West Broadway, because homelessness, housing and addictions are a provincial concern.

This explains a lot.

Previously, Gillingham’s over-reliance on policing as a solution to social ills has puzzled me, in an if-you-only-have-a-hammer-everything-looks-like-a-nail way. But since the mayor seems unaware of the ways his office could lessen the harms and promote social cohesion in West Broadway, I’d like to help him out.

First up, some low hanging fruit. The streetlights in West Broadway are spaced illogically far apart. My block has two streetlamps, both on the same side of the street. Once the sun goes down, there are portions of street that are completely black. I cannot see someone approaching, let alone recognize them or assess risk.

COVID-denying sentiment still thriving in Manitoba’s least-vaccinated health region

Malak Abas 8 minute read Wednesday, Jan. 12, 2022

There are fewer protests and news reports of harassment in COVID-19 hot zones in Manitoba’s Southern Health region, but the anti-vaccine movement is alive and well and, for one area doctor, extremely unsettling.

“They’ll accept a blood transfusion from us, they’ll accept our interpretation and explanation of a CT scan of their head, but not if we put a dry swab in the nose,” Morden-based family physician Dr. Donna Neufeld said Wednesday.

“It’s just surreal.”

The health region has, from the start of the vaccination campaign last winter, had the lowest uptake in the province. Health orders have, in some restaurants and retail outlets, been ignored by both customers and staff. And while winter has tossed a cold-weather blanket to muffle the most vocal public opposition, it hasn’t disappeared.
