ARIES (March 21-April 19)

Every month for about two-and-a-half days, you’re high-viz, which means people notice you more than usual. (In fact, some will know personal details about your private life.) That little window has arrived. Since you are noticed, do some damage control if necessary.

All My Children star Josh Duhamel is 54 today.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

You have a strong urge to break free from your daily routine and do something different. Travel would be perfect, but if you can’t do so, be a tourist in your own town. Go someplace you’ve never been before. Or take a mental journey by learning something new. Seek the excitement you crave.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

Your emotional experiences, for whatever reason, are more intense. For example, you might feel more possessive about something you own. Or you might desire something someone else has. Romance will also be passionate.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

Your attention turns to your most personal relationships — spouses, partners and close friends. Stay positive and upbeat. Avoid knee-jerk reactions. These relationships are especially important to you. Because of this, be accommodating and co-operative.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

This is a positive day, even though you might have to work at keeping your upbeat mood intact, especially as you might have to put the interests of someone else before your own — perhaps by helping them do something or giving them your place in line, as it were. Be supportive.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

This is a romantic, playful, fun-loving day, but you also have strong feelings, especially about your relationships. You might feel nurturing and protective toward your kids or someone else for that matter. Enjoy socializing. Explore romantic adventures.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

This can be a lovely, mellow day if you allow it to be. If possible, you will enjoy relaxing at home among familiar surroundings. You might be involved more than usual with a female relative. With your ruler Venus in your sign, you’re charming and diplomatic.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You’re keen to talk to others because you feel you have something to say. To put a finer point on it, you want to be heard. Therefore, find someone who genuinely wants to listen to what you have to say as this discussion will be important to you and rewarding.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Money issues are on your mind. However, because travel opportunities beckon, you might be making travel plans. You might also find you feel more attached to something you own. Don’t worry. We all have these moments and this one is fleeting. Gone in 48 hours.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

The moon is in your sign, which happens for two-and-a-half days every month.When this occurs, it will always make you more emotional than usual. However, it will also slightly improve your good luck over all the other signs. Why not test it? Ask the universe for a favour. See what happens.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Because the moon is in a hidden part of your chart, you might feel tempted to withdraw from the busyness of the world around you. You’ll enjoy your own company, especially with your favourite snacks and hobbies.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

Friendships means more to you now for some reason. This is why you might feel protective and supportive about a friend, especially if someone needs your emotional help. You might also feel jealous if this friend pays more attention to someone else. .

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Actor Josh Duhamel (1972) shares your birthday. You’re a compassionate humanitarian. Family and friends are important to you. This year you will reap the rewards of all your hard work. Expect a leadership role and increased power. Promotions, awards, kudos and acknowledgment will be yours. Act on opportunities.

Take things slow, but in the end you’ll know

Maureen Scurfield 4 minute read 2:01 AM EST

DEAR MISS LONELYHEARTS: I felt something akin to magic when I met my husband many years ago. We had a great marriage and then he became ill and died. I mourned him every day for two years, and I bitterly complained to anyone who would listen.

Finally, my best friends took me out for an evening, and it was a trick. At a bar, they told me I had turned into “Debbie Downer” and I had to wake up and start living again.

After I dried my tears, they said they were going to take me out to a half dozen different places — one every week or so — and that all I had to do was agree to come with them and fake a smile.

I soon learned how to do that. In fact, by week three on the trail, I was having fun and asking what was coming up the next week.

Akot makes most of transfer to Boise State

Taylor Allen 7 minute read Tuesday, Feb. 16, 2021

There was a time when Emmanuel Akot was projected to become the best basketball player to ever come out of Manitoba. 

Growing up playing club basketball for the Winnipeg Wolves, Akot spent some time at Kildonan East Collegiate before moving down to Utah. He played a pair of seasons at Wasatch Academy, one of the top high school basketball programs in the United States, to take his game to the next level and get noticed by an NCAA powerhouse.

A 6-8 guard/forward with the athleticism to be a dynamic scorer and defender, scouts were drooling over Akot's potential, especially after seeing him average 16.5 points per game as a senior at Wasatch. He was rated as a five-star recruit and the No. 24 overall high school prospect down south. He wasn't going unnoticed back home either as North Pole Hoops had Akot as the third-ranked Canadian basketball prospect. You'll even find some websites that projected the Winnipegger to be a first-round pick in the 2018 NBA Draft. At the time, it appeared Akot was taking the right steps in order to make that happen. 

He committed to the University of Arizona prior to the 2017-18 NCAA season and was planning on playing one season before entering his name for the NBA draft.

Manitobans Jarvis, Robins don't mind comparisons to star Tampa Bay forward

Mike Sawatzky 6 minute read Friday, Oct. 2, 2020

It's the trendy comparison and Seth Jarvis and Tristen Robins are getting used to it. 

In fact, most of the tenacious but undersized forward prospects for next week's NHL Draft probably get the treatment: Could (insert name here) be the next Brayden Point?

"Yeah, I get that a lot," says Jarvis, the 18-year-old Winnipegger who tore up the WHL with a sensational post-Christmas burst last season. "That's who I compare myself to. I think with the success he had in the playoffs and what he's done, he's only helped people and their view of me...

"He's someone that I look up to and I think a lot a lot of smaller players should look up to him, just the way he plays the game, the way he's always able to dominate like that at his size."

Being pedestrian in Winnipeg not for faint of heart

Erna Buffie 5 minute read 2:01 AM EST

We hear a lot these days about something called “mode shift,” primarily in relation to how people get around in our city. The objective, according to no fewer than four city reports, is to get people out of their cars and onto buses, bikes or their own two feet.

But as things currently stand, being a pedestrian in Winnipeg is not for the faint of heart. Indeed, crossing the road in this city can feel a lot like taking your life into your hands.

Between Sept. 11 and Nov. 2 — a mere seven weeks — 12 pedestrian collisions occurred involving one or more people. This when the national average is 25 pedestrian collisions per month.

We came close to claiming half of them.

Man found guilty of sparking North End fire that killed two

Dean Pritchard 4 minute read Friday, Nov. 6, 2026

A jury has found a 30-year-old Winnipeg man guilty of setting a North End building ablaze, killing two people who were living in a second-storey suite.

Jurors deliberated less than one full day before convicting Alex Courchene on Friday morning of one count of arson and two counts of second-degree murder in the Sept. 14, 2024, deaths of Zenabu Gula, 38, and Geda Wodisso, 49.

The jury rejected a theory by defence lawyers that another man, who’d been arrested and released without being charged, was the real fire starter.

Standing in the prisoner’s box, his arms crossed in front of him, Courchene showed no immediate visible reaction to the verdict but later appeared downcast.
