ARIES (March 21-April 19)

The day is a mixed bag. There are still fun opportunities to play and enjoy socializing with others. However, you might be sandbagged by someone who is critical or negative. Be careful with whom you choose to associate, because they might irk you. Focus on home repairs.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

Home and family are your primary focus right now. Unfortunately, discussions about money, kids, vacations and fun outings might trigger disputes or confrontations. Focus on discussions with siblings and relatives. Avoid negative people.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

You’re high-viz, which means people notice you more than usual. However, it’s easy to find yourself at odds with authority figures, parents, bosses and even the police. Even family members are not sympathetic. Find ways to entertain yourself.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

Steer clear of controversial subjects because some people are just itching for a fight. Don’t let them find you. In fact, practically any discussion about daily matters could end up being a testy conversation, especially with siblings and relatives. (Run away! Run away!)

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

Despite your interest in cash flow, earnings and financial matters, do not discuss these issues with anyone else, especially if someone owes you money. People are too quick to criticize, complain and attack. It’s in the stars. Keep to yourself as much as possible.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Even though Venus is in your sign promoting diplomacy and charm, nevertheless, relations with partners, spouses and close friends as well as authority figures — parents, bosses and the police — are dicey! Seek solitude for your own peace of mind.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You like to keep the peace and you like happy, harmonious surroundings. However, people are too quick to be on each other’s cases, dispute issues and even criticize others. You don’t need this. Fortunately, relations with a friend or a group might be OK for you. Tread carefully.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

This is a tough day for romance because people are in a bad mood and too quick to criticize. Your feelings might be quickly hurt. Or you might hurt someone else’s feelings? Furthermore, people will notice you. Do your best to be friendly and diplomatic. (For your own sake.)

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This is a poor day to approach authority figures — parents, bosses, teachers, VIPs and the police — to ask for permission or approval. Don’t do it. Likewise, discussions with partners, spouses and close friends might also be alienating. Find a comfortable place to hide with comfort food.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Issues with work colleagues might come to a head and create problems, because people are sensitive and also unnecessarily critical. It’s not good. Fortunately, you might find sympathy through a close friend, spouse or partner. Keep a low profile. Say as little as possible.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

This is the perfect day for a nap. Unfortunately, romantic relationships are stressed and disappointing. Likewise, parents might find dealing with their kids to be a real challenge. Social occasions will likely disappoint. (Run for cover.)

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

Bury yourself in work, or escape somewhere, because your relations with family members, spouses, partners and people at home are challenged! Don’t expect co-operation or help from them. Instead, be sympathetic and understanding. Social outings, sports and activities with children might be excellent choices for you.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Actor Sam Worthington (1976) shares your birthday. You are energetic and loyal. You’re also straightforward, incisive and logical. This is a slower-paced year. Take time to rejuvenate your energy. Focus on business and personal relationships and hang out with people who are kind and helpful. Focus on your needs and what brings you happiness.

Philippines reports world's 1st virus death outside China

The Associated Press 7 minute read Sunday, Feb. 2, 2020

BEIJING - The first death outside China from the new coronavirus was recorded Sunday in the Philippines, as countries around the world evacuated hundreds of their citizens from the infection zone and Chinese authorities completed a new, rapidly constructed 1,000-bed hospital for victims of the outbreak.

Chinese authorities also delayed the reopening of schools in the hardest-hit province and tightened the quarantine in one city by allowing only one family member to venture out to buy supplies.

The Philippine Health Department said a 44-year-old Chinese man from Wuhan, the city at the centre of the crisis, was hospitalized Jan. 25 with a fever, cough and sore throat and died after developing severe pneumonia. The man's 38-year-old female companion, also from Wuhan, tested positive for the virus as well and remained hospitalized in isolation in Manila.

Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte approved a ban on the entry of all non-citizens from China. The U.S., Japan, Singapore and Australia have imposed similar restrictions despite criticism from China and an assessment from the World Health Organization that such measures were unnecessarily hurting trade and travel.

Grade 6: Twilight of the age of innocence

Carolin Vesely 9 minute read Saturday, Dec. 11, 2010

It's Friday morning at Windsor School and we are in the guitar room doing the Chicken Dance while singing Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star.

I say "we" because there are no observers allowed at circle time, only participants.

Silly song-and-dance combos might seem like a strange way to start a morning meeting in your world, but that's how we roll in the Circle of Power and Respect -- CPR as it's known in the Responsive Classroom approach to elementary education. That approach is based on the premise children learn best when they have both academic and social-emotional skills.

In CPR, we connect as a class and listen to each other's stories, hopes and fears without putting each other down. Everyone is seen, heard and acknowledged.

Climate change threatens events we wait for all year

Jen Zoratti 5 minute read Yesterday at 2:01 AM CDT

This week, owing to extreme heat and a wild storm with tree-snapping winds, the Royal Winnipeg Ballet had to cancel its full run of Ballet in the Park, a much-loved annual tradition at which people from all over Manitoba can enjoy world-class art in the verdant Assiniboine Park.

Two weeks prior, Rainbow Stage, another jewel of a Winnipeg summer, had to cancel the closing matinee of Jesus Christ Superstar owing to heat and humidity.

And at the beginning of July, Winnipeg Folk Festival attendees baked under scorching temperatures — 47 C with the humidex — to enjoy not just the discovery of music, but the community that has formed in Birds Hill Park on the second weekend of July for over 50 years.

This doesn’t feel great. I do not begrudge cancellations — they are absolutely the correct call for the health and safety of performers and patrons — but I can’t be the only one feeling some existential dread about our summers, and the things that make them special, in the face of a changing climate.

Weather aside, Goldeyes warmed by potential of new season at training camp

Mike McIntyre 6 minute read Wednesday, May. 6, 2026

It may feel more like hockey weather than baseball season around here, but that hasn’t stopped the Winnipeg Goldeyes from getting into the swing of things.

Sure, these Fish might be frozen during spring training, but optimism is already heating up about what these boys of summer could accomplish by early fall.

“I think we’ve got a really good team. I think we’re going to make a run at it,” veteran slugger Max Murphy told the Free Press on Wednesday at Blue Cross Park.

He’s talking about an American Association championship, which the Goldeyes last accomplished in 2017. They came close to winning it all in 2024 — the first year under skipper Logan Watkins — but ultimately lost in the final. Last year represented a step back, with a 48-51 record which led to missing the playoffs entirely.

Women rise above misogynistic online attacks

Melissa Martin 7 minute read Thursday, May. 7, 2020

Nicole Zajac was at home Tuesday morning, when an anonymous email landed in her inbox.

Shannon Birchard found out the next day, when a friend contacted her to break the news about images that were starting to blaze across social media and would soon ignite a firestorm in the hockey world and beyond.

There were 55 images in all: screencaps of messages sent to a private Instagram group of Winnipeg hockey players, including Washington Capitals fourth-liner Brendan Leipsic; his brother Jeremey Leipsic of the University of Manitoba Bisons; Florida Panthers prospect Jack Rodewald; and University of North Dakota forward Jackson Keane.

Some discussed cocaine use and sexual exploits. Mostly, though, the men insulted women.
