ARIES (March 21-April 19)

Communications with friends and members of groups are lively. You have lots of mental energy when it comes to talking to others. This means you’ll be persuasive. However, later in the day, stay flexible because plans might change and someone new might be on the scene.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

You can express yourself in a direct manner, especially talking to parents, VIPs and authority figures. This makes you appear confident. Nevertheless, double-check financial matters, especially later in the day, because something unexpected might catch you off-guard.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

You have strong opinions, especially when discussing controversial ideas related to politics, religion and racial issues. Because the day includes sudden impulses and spontaneous activities, take a breath and think before you speak so you have no regrets later.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

Issues related to shared property, taxes, debt and inheritances might arise. (Anything related to jointly-held matters and your partner’s wealth.)

Keep your eyes open because something unexpected might occur that affects your wealth and assets.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

Your best choice is to be easy-going and friendly with others. Be accommodating and helpful because the moon is opposite your sign, which means you don’t have the edge — other people do. Just accept this. In two weeks, you will have the edge, but not now.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You’re keen to work and just as keen to get organized. You might be making to-do lists and thinking about ways to improve your health. (The list part is always fun and satisfying, isn’t it?) However, something unexpected might catch you off-guard at work. Be vigilant about your pet.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Be open to all kinds of possibilities because unexpected social invitations might come your way. A surprise flirtation might occur. You might become more involved in the arts — actively or through appreciation. Parents should be extra-vigilant with their kids.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Family discussions will be direct and to the point because someone wants to make issues very clear. (That someone might be you.) Nevertheless, later in the day, your home routine will be interrupted. Small appliances might break down. A minor outage could occur. Someone might appear at your door.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You’re convincing talking because you say what you mean and mean what you say. It’s important to know this is a mildly accident-prone day for you. Your daily routine might suddenly change. Pay attention to everything you say and do to stay happy.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Keep an eye on your money and possessions because something unexpected could impact them. For example, you might find money; you might lose money. Definitely, protect what you own against loss, theft or damage.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

The moon is in your sign, which is invigorating. (Plus, it gives you a slight bit of good luck, which is an edge over all other signs.) That’s why this is an excellent day to negotiate for something on your own behalf.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

This is a solid week for you because you’re able to establish a nice balance between work and play. However, you probably feel a bit restless. You have the feeling you’re waiting for the other shoe to drop.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Actress/model Pamela Anderson (1967) shares your birthday. You’re deeply sensitive and introspective. You’re also empathetic and compassionate. This year is the completion of a nine-year cycle for you. Take inventory of your life. Let go of people, places and things that have held you back. Do some internal and external housecleaning.

New Royal MTC artistic director to ensure everyone gets an equal voice on stage

Randall King 7 minute read Wednesday, Oct. 3, 2018

It’s kind of like going from a nomadic existence to suddenly having two homes.

That’s what it’s like for Kelly Thornton to shift from her 17-year tenure at Toronto’s Nightwood Theatre to come to Winnipeg to take the helm of the Royal Manitoba Theatre Centre.

When she takes over the role of artistic director from retiring A.D. Steven Schipper in June of next year, Thornton, 53, will program for two venues, the Royal MTC’s John Hirsch Mainstage and the Tom Hendry Warehouse Theatre.

Keep in mind that, in her years at Nightwood, Thornton had no single theatre to call home.

Winnipeg musicians respond to pandemic in different ways through music

Ben Waldman 7 minute read Thursday, Jan. 21, 2021

By now, everybody knows what the pandemic looks like: masks, on faces or on the sidewalk; kitchen tables transmogrifying into co-working spaces; hands cracked and red from sanitizer.

But what does the pandemic look like when musicians start putting pen to paper? And what will it sound like once those words and music are recorded? The Free Press reached out to Manitoba musicians to find out, and discovered some are leaning into the new state of the world for inspiration, while others are avoiding it altogether.

Ava Wray finds humour in pandemic lifeAva Wray had good reason to feel pessimistic. She lost her job. Her relationship ended. It seemed she was spending more time with cats than with people (though, admittedly, she sort of liked that). When it came to writing songs, it was hard to focus on anything but the implosion of her world and the world around her.

“So often, lyrics come from the events in our lives, but suddenly, nothing was happening,” says the singer and guitarist, a member of local duo Bicycle Face and other projects. “So I had to look around and write about what was happening — right then.”

Ostrowski files $16-M wrongful conviction lawsuit

Ostrowski files $16-M wrongful conviction lawsuit

Dean Pritchard 4 minute read Tuesday, Jun. 16, 2020

Nearly two years after Manitoba’s highest court added his name to the list of the province’s wrongfully convicted, Frank Ostrowski has filed a $16-million lawsuit against those he alleges played a role in sending him to prison for 23 years for a murder he says he didn't commit.

Ostrowski, 70, was convicted in 1987 of orchestrating the drug-related shooting death of 22-year-old Robert Nieman and sentenced to life in prison with no chance of parole for 25 years.

In 2018, nine years after he was released on bail pending a federal review of his case, the Manitoba Court of Appeal stayed Ostrowski’s murder conviction — ruling an undisclosed prosecution deal with police informant Matthew Lovelace, in return for his testimony, resulted in a miscarriage of justice.

Also not disclosed to the defence were notes and a report from a Winnipeg Police Service officer, Sgt. N. Jacobson, who had a phone conversation with the informant a few hours before the slaying, during which Lovelace identified another man, not Nieman, as the target of a shooting.

On eve of Folklorama, Ghana pavilion scrambles to replace stolen outfits

Chris Kitching 5 minute read Updated: 1:55 PM CDT

Volunteers from Folklorama’s Ghana pavilion scrambled to replace cultural costumes for about 40 young dancers after the outfits were stolen in Winnipeg days before the annual festival begins.

Two plastic storage bins containing the costumes, to be worn by children and teenagers, were taken from the trunk of a parked car on Banning Street, near Notre Dame Avenue in the West End, likely late Wednesday or early Thursday.

“I felt sad that this has happened. I felt completely devastated for the mother who had them in her car,” said pavilion co-ordinator Abigail Larson. “The initial feeling of sadness changed to, ‘OK, how do we make this a positive?’”

The costumes belong to the Ghana Union of Manitoba Dancers, whose members have rehearsed for months for Folklorama, which begins Sunday.

Plan to stay busy with overseas sweetheart

Maureen Scurfield 5 minute read 2:00 AM CDT

DEAR MISS LONELYHEARTS: I got a surprise phone call the other night from a number I thought I recognized and took a chance on answering it.

It was an old English girlfriend who still lives in London, where I went to university. I’ve been lonely this summer, so I thought, “What harm could there be in a friendly chat?”

I poured myself a big glass of wine as we started conversing. She was all flirty and charming — and hinting she wanted an invitation to come to Canada and visit me.

That sounded kind of exciting, and as I had another drink (and another) as we kept on talking, things got into full swing! Now she’s coming to Winnipeg for three weeks in the very near future. That can be a long time, if things go badly. Help me!

COVID picture remains bleak in Manitoba with record cases, three more deaths

Danielle Da Silva 6 minute read Tuesday, Oct. 27, 2020

A day after the province's top doctor admonished Manitobans for their cavalier approach to COVID-19, a starker picture emerged Tuesday, as a record 184 new cases and three more deaths were announced, including two patients at St. Boniface Hospital.

A man and a woman, both from Winnipeg and in their 80s, were patients at the province’s second largest hospital when they were diagnosed with COVID-19. A female in her 60s linked to the outbreak at Parkview Place care home also died.

Manitoba's death toll stands at 58. 

St. Boniface Hospital is managing an outbreak of the virus which has spread to include three units (B5, E5 and E6) and has infected 23 patients and 10 staff members.
