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

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

Relations with parents and authority figures might be strained. Resist the urge to be too pushy. Likewise, avoid other people who are pushy. Your best choice is to work hard and get better organized. Fortunately, relations with partners are good.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

Steer clear of squabbles, which can easily arise. You might feel criticized. Or conversely, you might feel critical of someone else? Certainly, you won’t hesitate to express your opinions. Easy does it. Instead, focus on sports, social outings and fun activities with kids.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

Money disputes or quarrels about ownership of something might arise. In fact, you have strong feelings about your possessions. Meanwhile, someone older or perhaps a member of a group might think otherwise? Tread carefully. Talk to family members.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

The moon is lined up with Mars in your sign at odds with Saturn. (Yikes!) This puts a strain on your conversations with others because you might be a tad aggressive and defensive at the same time. This is a poor day to ask for permission or approval from anyone. Just tread water.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

Something going on behind the scenes might rankle you. It might have something to do with rules and regulations, the law or tradition. Whatever it is, you might want to ignore it or fight it. (You might question the wisdom of this.)

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Relations with friends and groups might be tested, especially regarding shared expenses or the division of resources or property. You might feel someone is not being fair? They might demand too much of you? Or you might think they’re not pulling their weight.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

This is a tricky day, because you like to keep the peace and enjoy harmony in all your relationships. But right now your relations with authority figures are testy, even aggressive. You might feel criticized, especially by a partner. Don’t get your belly in a rash.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Be smart and steer clear of controversial subjects like politics, religion and racial issues, because they could quickly explode into an argument. Meanwhile, issues related to your job, work, or even your health seem to be onerous. Seek solitude in pleasant surroundings.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Something to do with socializing or dealing with kids, vacations, the arts or romance might be disappointing. Someone might be too opinionated or coming on too strong. (Hopefully, this person is not you.) Take it easy and lower your expectations. Be reasonable and forgiving.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

This is the classic day for irritable conversations and challenges dealing with spouses, partners and close friends. An older relative or a parent might even be in the mix. Everyone has an opinion and there’s nowhere to run for cover. Send out for dark chocolate.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Although relations with others are aggressive and challenging, nevertheless, you can get a lot of work done. (This might be your best option.) Steer clear of negative thinking as well as hurt feelings. Life is short — and fat.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

Disputes about money and finances, especially if they have to cover the cost of a vacation, social occasion, sporting events or something to do with the entertainment or education of children, are likely. Take your pick. The day has its challenges. Actually, it’s the perfect day for a nap.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Musician Roger Waters (1943) shares your birthday. You are complex. You’re sensitive, organized, brave and adventurous! You look out for the welfare of others. This is a year of learning and teaching. Take time to renew your spiritual beliefs. Explore meditation, prayer or introspection, along with philosophies that give you a better understanding of your life.

Virus testing the new normal as China sticks to 'zero-COVID'

Virus testing the new normal as China sticks to 'zero-COVID'

Ken Moritsugu, The Associated Press 5 minute read Thursday, Jun. 9, 2022

BEIJING (AP) — Thousands of coronavirus testing sites have popped up on sidewalks across Beijing and other Chinese cities in the latest development in the country's “zero-COVID” strategy.

Lines form every day, rain or shine, even where the spread of the virus has largely stopped. Some people need to go to work. Others want to shop. All are effectively compelled to get tested by a requirement to show a negative test result to enter office buildings, malls and other public places.

Liu Lele, who works for a live-streaming company, has no problem getting tested regularly but said the daytime operating hours don't always fit his schedule.

“Sometimes I get held up at work," he said after finishing a test Thursday near Beijing's historic Bell and Drum towers. "I wish there were sites open 24 hours or not closing until 7 or 8 p.m.”

Another new year starts with hope

Another new year starts with hope

Niigaan Sinclair 5 minute read Tuesday, Dec. 29, 2020

The year began with hope that many long-standing challenges for Indigenous communities could be overcome.

For example, on Jan. 1, Bill C-92 came into effect, enabling Indigenous communities to take control of child and family services, making them “free to develop policies and laws based on their particular histories, cultures, and circumstances.”

This followed the 2019 passing of Bill C-91 and the creation of a federal Indigenous languages office — committing the government to support and fund “Indigenous-led language reclamation, revitalization, maintenance and strengthening activities.”

January also marked the opening of the Indian day school settlement process, offering more than 200,000 survivors compensation for harms perpetuated at 699 schools, and a $200-million education, healing and commemoration fund.

Winnipeg Olympic hopeful Wog a natural in the pool

Mike Sawatzky 13 minute read Thursday, Jun. 3, 2021

Vlastik Cerny has overseen hundreds of swimmers in his more than four decades in the sport. Occasionally, a special talent emerges.

Kelsey Wog was nine years old in 2007, just getting her start in the sport when she made just such an impression.

"She just pushed off the wall and she just glided right across the pool and I said, 'Well, there's a fish right there,'" recalls Cerny, the long-time coach of the University of Manitoba swim team. "I've been in the sport basically my whole life and you recognize that kind of gift right away."

It's a talent that allows Wog to remain at the surface of the water with little effort that caught Cerny's eye that day. And it's the basis of a skill set that should put her in contention for a podium finish in her signature event, the women's 200-metre breaststroke, at the Summer Olympics in Tokyo next month.

Mr. Track and Field: Jim Daly devoted his life to developing the sport

Devon Shewchuk 5 minute read Monday, Sep. 9, 2019

It’s been said the true measure of a runner isn’t in time, but rather the effort it took along the way.

James ‘Jim’ Daly only spent about 10 years racing track and field, but it was enough to make him fall in love with the sport. He dedicated the rest of his life to helping young track athletes from across Manitoba strive for their own personal bests.

Dubbed “Mr. Track and Field” by friends and family, Jim never met a track athlete he didn’t like, no matter their level of talent. His commitment to track and field went far beyond the results of any meet.

Daly died on May 16 at the age of 92.

Property tax promise will be hardest pledge to keep

Property tax promise will be hardest pledge to keep

Tom Brodbeck 4 minute read Wednesday, Sep. 11, 2019

The majority of the promises made by Brian Pallister and the PC party in the provincial election campaign were modest ones. Most should be easy to implement.

The pledges, including spending $2 billion more on health care over four years, building 20 schools and working closer with police to fight crime, are largely continuations of what government was already doing.

This election was more about Pallister seeking approval for his government’s agenda – especially in health care – than getting a new mandate.

But there was one surprise election commitment – phasing out education property taxes – that will be far more difficult and controversial to implement.
