A little over a year after former Shelby County Sheriff Dean Kimpel pleaded guilty to a criminal offense, he is off of probation and apparently can run for office again or return to law enforcement.

In a document filed in Shelby County Common Pleas Court earlier this week, Kimpelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s probation was terminated

by Miami County Common Pleas Court Judge Robert Lindeman, who presided in his original case. The recommendation was made by the Ohio Adult Parole Authority (APA), a division of the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Corrections (ODRC). The order stated, â&#x20AC;&#x153;the defendant made a satisfactory adjustment to community control, having scored at a low level on the Ohio Risk Assessment System.â&#x20AC;?

Tina Patrick, Regional Administrator of the APAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Dayton Region, said â&#x20AC;&#x153;the judge ordered in the journal entry (court docket) that he (Kimpel) could be considered for early termination after one year. The termination was staffed with the judge and approved by Judge Lindeman.â&#x20AC;?

According to Shelby County Common Pleas Clerk of Courts Michelle Mumford, however, no record of consideration of early termination was filed and no motions are noted.

On June 8, 2012, Lindeman sentenced Kimpel to serve two See KIMPEL | 3

Ask Shelby County Fair Secretary Jerry Schaffner if there have been any problems with the set-up and load-in for this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fair and heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quick to respond. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The ordinary things that happen that you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t expect,â&#x20AC;? he said.

water heater in the main block restroom stopped working. The main block restroom is the only one on the fairgrounds with showers. It is located between the livestock barns and the midway.

The heater had been installed in 1964, and it seemed to just throw in the towel after 50 years of faithful service. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had to go to Columbus to get one,â&#x20AC;?

preparations by purchasing paint and painting fire hydrants and protection posts throughout the grounds Sunday and Monday.

“Something that had not been done in several years,” said troop leader Lisa Phillips.

Exhibitors, vendors and ride managers have been trucking things onto the grounds for days and the first contest will begin at 9 a.m. Sunday when the Leonard Schaffner Mixed Open starts at the horseshoe courts, but the fair will officially open with ceremonies at noon.

At the flag pole in front of the Free Entertainment Tent, the Houston High School band will perform and Boy Scouts will lead the Pledge of Allegiance to the flag. County commissioners may speak and the attending crowd

will then be invited to Junior Fair Horse Arena for additional ceremonies to welcome Special Olympians.

Special Day for Special Athletes Sunday has been designated Special Day for Special Athletes at the fair. New this year, the day pays tribute to Shelby Countians who are members and volunteers of Special Olympics.

According to Jeremy Reese, of the Shelby County Fair Board, the idea was the result of a brainstorming session

last year with Shelby County Special Olympics leaders Mark Harrod and Jan Burns.

“They were instrumental in pulling it together,” Reese said. The Special Olympians and their caregivers will receive free fair admission at Gate A, near Sidney Middle School, beginning at 1 p.m. A welcoming ceremony for them will take place in the Junior Fair Horse Arena just after 1 p.m.

“We have special arrangements if people need special assistance,” Reese said.

Members of various 4-H clubs will be available to give tours to the special athletes and youth exhibitors will stand with their projects to explain them throughout the day.

At 6 p.m., three Special Olympians will present a horse exhibition in the Junior Fair Horse Arena.

Mikayla Ryder, daughter of Steve and Mary “Murry” Ryder, and Collin Meyer, son of Dave Meyer and Tina Swiger, all of Jackson Center, and Celena Ramirez, daughter of Bill and Cami Frey,

of Houston, will perform.

The exhibition is open to the public.

“We’re hoping for a really, really strong turnout (of Special Olympians) to make this an annual event,” Reese said.

Sunday highlights Among other highlights Sunday will be the back-to-back truck pulls at 1 p.m. and the demolition derby at 5 p.m. in the grandstand. Each event charges a $2 admission fee in addition to fair admission.

Also scheduled are the Little Mr. and Miss Shelby County Fair pageant, the baked goods auction, and the Dristrict V jersey and District 14 Holstein shows, all at 6 p.m.; the Junior Fair queen pageant at 8 p.m.

The Fearless Flores thrill show performs next to the gazebo at 6 and 8 p.m. Various entertainers perform in the gazebo and the Free Entertainment Tent throughout the day.

Rides open at 1 p.m.

Monday highlights Shelby County Youth Soccer players who wear their team shirts and pay the full admission price Monday will help to raise money for the league.

The fair will donate $2 per shirted player.

Rides open at 4 p.m.

The Richard Prince Memorial Human Tractor Pull begins at 7 p.m. in grandstand.

The Fearless Flores thrill show performs at 6 and 8 p.m.

Various animal judging and entertainment take place throughout the day.

Kimpel From page 1 years of community control probation and fined him $1,000 after he pleaded guilty to one count of unauthorized use of a computer, cable or telecommunications property, a fifth degree felony. Kimpel was originally charged in Shelby County with five counts of unauthorized use of the Ohio Law Enforcement Gateway computer system, but as part of a plea bargain that charge was amended. He had also been indicted on one charge of sexual battery in Auglaize County involving former Shelby County Sheriff’s Deputy Jodi Van Fossen, but that charge was dropped as part of the plea agreement. Among special conditions of Kimpel’s probation were the fact that he was to have “no contact, direct or indirect, with Jodi Van Fossen.”

He was also prohibited from being a law enforcement officer during the term of his probation. In terminating the probation, Lindeman also ordered that Kimpel “may serve as a juror or hold an office of honor, trust or profit” as defined in Ohio Revised Code. The order allows for Kimpel to seek public office, serve as a law enforcement officer or in other public positions. The O.R.C. section allowing Kimpel to return to public service states in part that he can hold a “position of honor, trust, or profit.” This includes a position in which, in the course of public employment, an employee has control over the expenditure of public funds of $100,000 or more annually. It noted further that Kimpel’s conviction on charges in the course of his duties as a sheriff will not keep him from returning to law enforcement or from running for sheriff or other office if he chooses to do so.

Patrick told the Daily News via email that Kimpel’s employment with the Anna Honda plant, reportedly through a temporary employment agency while on probation, “was staffed with Judge Lindeman and he (Lindeman) approved of this employment.”

Van Fossen also reportedly works at the Honda

plant. Patrick said that Kimpel working at the same plant as Van Fossen was “not a violation (of the no contact order).” She said the APA did look into the issue.

According to a representative of Honda’s Human Resources Department, only persons with felonies seven years or older are considered for employment with Honda or their temporary agencies and it must be a non-violent offense. She could not explain how Kimpel was able to obtain employment at the plant.

Miami County Prosecutor Tony Kendell, who assisted in the prosecution of Kimpel, told the Sidney Daily News he has “the highest level of respect for Judge Lindeman, but I am disappointed in the outcome of this case.” Neither Kendell or Miami County Municipal Court Judge Gary Nasal, who was a special prosecutor in the Kimpel case, had any input into the decision to release Kimpel from probation.

A lawsuit seeking to recoup back pay from Kimpel, which he received while suspended from office, is continuing and the Ohio Attorney General’s office is seeking to have Kimpel’s salary and other benefits paid back to the county. The AG asks that Kimpel be ordered to pay $58,883.71 plus interest until paid in full.

Ohio GOP lawmaker indicted on fraud, theft charges Amanda Lee Myers Associated Press

CINCINNATI — A Republican lawmaker who authorities say misled investors about a company’s financial status and used their money for personal gain was indicted Friday on 16 felony charges including fraud and theft even as his attorneys called the accusations outlandish and shameful.

State Rep. Pete Beck, a certified public accountant from Mason, was indicted on four counts of theft and two counts each of securities fraud, making misrepresentations and selling securities in an insolvent company without full disclosure, among other charges. If convicted, he could face up to 102 years in prison, authorities said.

Beck, 60, has denied the allegations through his attorney Konrad Kircher, who said in a statement that the charges were

unsupported and that Beck “will mount a vigorous defense” to clear his name.

A man who served as president of one of the companies also was indicted Friday and faces seven charges similar to Beck’s, authorities said.

“They knew the truth, and yet deceived investors to get their capital to keep the company afloat and use the money for other purposes,” state Attorney General Mike DeWine said in a statement.

A lawsuit filed in January by 14 investors from Ohio, Pennsylvania, Kentucky, Alabama, Maryland and Washington, D.C., accuses Beck, the accounting firm where he worked and others of misleading them about the financial statuses of two companies, persuading them to invest when it was inadvisable and misusing about $1.2 million, the amount they contributed.

The lawsuit accuses

Beck and the others of using the money for personal reasons, including $15,000 toward Beck’s political campaign in 2010, and says investors haven’t gotten a penny back.

The conduct by Beck and the others “was malicious, deliberate, gross and egregious,” the lawsuit says.

In a countersuit Beck filed in February and in other court documents, he said he never solicited money from investors. He said he prepared only a few financial statements for them and those statements were accurate.

Beck’s attorneys wrote that the investors are targeting him because the major players in the case are dead or bankrupt.

“Perhaps (they) thought that such scandalous allegations would make Beck roll over and pay them some money,” the attorneys wrote.

“Unfortunately for plain-

tiffs, Beck has his reputation to protect.”

Beck’s indictment marks the third time in the last 16 months an Ohio lawmaker has been criminally charged.

Former Rep. Clayton Luckie, a Dayton Democrat, pleaded guilty in January to election falsification, grand theft and other charges and is serving three years in prison. State and federal investigators found Luckie skimmed nearly $130,000 in campaign funds for personal use and failed to list campaign expenditures for six years.

Former Rep. W. Carlton Weddington, a Columbus Democrat, pleaded guilty in June 2012 to charges of bribery, election falsification and filing a false financial disclosure statement and is serving three years in prison. Authorities say he accepted trips and cash in exchange for taking steps to introduce legislation.

Changes sought for Ohio, Ky. unmarked vets’ graves CINCINNATI (AP) — Federal policy is preventing some veterans with unmarked graves from getting headstones and tombstones to mark their final resting places, and some supporters of historic cemeteries want that changed.

Supporters in Ohio and Kentucky are among those who

Sidney Daily News, Saturday, July 20, 2013

want to change a U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs policy they say is too restrictive, The Cincinnati Enquirer reported.

The federal regulation defines “applicant” as the veteran’s next of kin, a person authorized in writing by the next of kin or a representative authorized in writ-

ing by the veteran. But members of historical groups and those working to preserve Civil War-era cemeteries say the policy wasn’t consistently enforced until last year. Some seeking to get markers for veterans’ unmarked graves say they’ve been turned down because they weren’t direct descen-

dants, the newspaper said.

A national campaign to change the policy has launched an online petition asking that the VA make the regulation inapplicable to veterans who served more than 62 years ago. The petition collected 1,950 signatures as of Thursday, the newspaper reported.

The experience was therapy indeed and Hemmert continued working with Lehman musicals for the next 18 years. During that time, her private lesson roster overflowed with Lehman students for whom “Betty lessons” were the inspiration for their develop-

ment, both musically an in the realm of poise and maturity. Many of her private students went on to excel in college music studies and even star on the Broadway stage.

Even when health concerns forced her to move to a retirement community in Cincinnati to be closer to family in 2001, a few Lehman students made the trip south for periodic vocal coaching. After her death in 2012, her family donated her most treasured possession, her Baldwin baby grand piano, to the Lehman Catholic Music Department.

Hemmert’s daughter, Julie Hemmert, wrote: “Betty’s proudest moments were not when she was in the limelight, but watching her students grow and perform … and ultimately helping them to ‘find their voice.’ Due to Betty Hemmert’s years of service and volunteer work, as well as her dedication and inspiration to her students, I believe that she should be considered for induction in the Lehman Catholic High School Hall of Fame.”

In a letter written to Hemmert in 2004, Steve Hinger, Lehman Class of 1980, who is now a theater professional in Chicago, said: “When

Ohio scales back number of prisons reducing power Associated Press

COLUMBUS — The state says it’s scaling back the number of Ohio prisons participating in a program that generates money in return for big electricity users agreeing to reduce power during periods of high usage.

An agreement with Ohio-based KOREnergy Ltd. had involved 24 institutions that agreed to significantly reduce power on two hours notice in exchange for payments, whether the shut-offs are required.

Department of

Rehabilitation and Correction spokeswoman Ricky Seyfang said Thursday the state is limiting to five the number of participating prisons for quality of life reasons during the heat wave.

The program generated more than $1.3 million in the past three years.

The five: Chillicothe, Marion and Pickaway correctional institutions; Northeast PreRelease Center in Cleveland; and the Ohio State Penitentiary in Youngstown.

2 dead in outbreak at Ohio retirement community Associated Press

COLUMBUS — Health officials in a central Ohio county have confirmed that two people have died from an outbreak of Legionnaires’ disease at a retirement community.

The Columbus Dispatch reports that of the 16 people who have been affected by the disease one died this week and another one the week before. The names and ages of the deceased have not being released.

Five people remain hospitalized.

The newspaper reports the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is investigating the outbreak.

About 200 seniors live at the affected Wesley Ridge Retirement Community outside Columbus. The first case was reported July 9.

Legionnaires’ is not contagious. It is contracted by breathing in contaminated mist or vapor.

Residents have not been allowed to shower at the facility since the first case was confirmed.

Hemmert’s associa-

looking back upon one’s past, key people and events stand out for they are the things that have shaped and influenced our lives. They touch us in a way that has such power, that we can never forget them. When I look back on my life, Betty, you are and will always be one of those people.

You started me on a path that I continue to travel. You instilled in me a love, an appreciation, and a joy for music that will always be a part of my life, and I am very blessed and honored to have been your student.

Whether it be in the choir loft of St. Mary’s Church, the stage of Lehman High School, or the front room of your home, you have touched so many, and have made us all better musicians and better human beings.”

In his nominating letter, Tom Froning, Lehman Class of 1989, wrote: “It is difficult for me to write about the attributes of Mrs. Hemmert without writing about myself because her guidance affected me personally on so many different levels. Yet, I know my story is not unique, as there are thousands of students from several different schools whom Betty taught. She

had a profound effect on the professional lives of the Bogart brothers and Stephanie Wilberding, among many other Lehman grads who still call music and theater their job. And then there are those of us who take her lessons with us each day, though we haven’t been on stage for a long, long time.”

In her nominating letter, Mary Ellen Wiford Carr, Lehman Class of 1992, said, “MerriamWebster defines Hall of Fame as ‘a group of individuals in a particular category … who have been selected as particularly illustrious.’ Betty Hemmert is the epitome of illustrious, but illustrious is only one word that could be used when describing her. Other adjectives would be generous, dedicated, extraordinary, unprecedented and phenomenal. No person would ever be able to teach you about music as masterfully as Mrs. Hemmert, but perhaps the most important endeavor accomplished was that of life lessons.

It takes a one-of-a-kind individual to be a complete package, and Mrs. Hemmert was that. She was first and foremost your teacher, but also a confidante, many times a sounding board, and even more, your biggest supporter. (She) taught me dignity and decorum, staying true to myself, and gave exquisite instruction on losing gracefully and acquiring the skills vital for behaving as a proper and honorable human being who ‘seeks first the Kingdom of God.’” (Matthew 6:33) Tickets for the Hall of Fame induction ceremony are available by contacting the Lehman Catholic Development Office. The deadline for ordering tickets is July 29.

Today in History

By The Associated Press Today is Saturday, July 20, the 201st day of 2013.

There are 164 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On July 20, 2012, a gunman wearing a helmet, body armor and a gas mask opened fire inside a crowded movie theater in Aurora, Colo., during a midnight showing of “The Dark Knight Rises,” killing 12 people in one of the deadliest mass shootings in recent U.S. history. (Suspect James Eagen Holmes has pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity to more than 160 counts of murder and attempted murder.)

On this date: In 1861, the Congress of the Confederate States convened in Richmond, Va. In 1871, British Columbia entered confederation as a Canadian province.

In 1917, the World War I draft lottery went into operation.

In 1923, Mexican revolutionary leader Pancho Villa was assassinated.

In 1944, an attempt by a group of German officials to assassinate Adolf Hitler with a bomb failed as the explosion only wounded the Nazi leader. President Franklin D. Roosevelt was nominated for a fourth term of office at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago.

In 1951, Jordan’s King Abdullah I was assassinated in Jerusalem by a Palestinian gunman who was shot dead on the spot by security.

In 1968, the first International Special Olympics Summer Games, organized by Eunice Kennedy Shriver, were held at Soldier Field in Chicago.

In 1969, astronauts Neil Armstrong and Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin became the first men to walk on the moon after reaching the surface in their Apollo 11 lunar module.

In 1976, America’s Viking 1 robot spacecraft made a successful, first-ever landing on Mars.

In 1982, Irish Republican Army bombs exploded in two London parks, killing eight British soldiers, along with seven horses belonging to the Queen’s Household Cavalry.

In 1988, Massachusetts Gov. Michael S. Dukakis received the Democratic presidential nomination at the party’s convention in Atlanta. Iranian leader Ayatollah Khomeini (hohMAY’-nee) accepted a truce with Iraq, even though he said the decision was like drinking poison.

Out of the Blue

Please don’t save the turtles BARNSTABLE, Mass.

(AP) — Two members of the Kennedy family who thought they were doing a good deed by freeing an entangled sea turtle actually violated the law, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

John Bullard of NOAA’s Division of Fisheries said he spoke to brothers Max and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. about their rescue of the leatherback turtle and explained to them that what they did was dangerous and a violation of the Endangered Species Act, which makes it illegal to handle an endangered or protected species.

The Kennedys freed the estimated 500-pound turtle from a buoy line wrapped around its head and fins on July 6 after they spotted it while out sailing on Nantucket Sound. The brothers have been “cooperative and very helpful” as the agency gathers pictures, gear and other evidence involved in the rescue, Bullard told Cape Cod Times.

Turtle rescue is best left to professionals because of the danger involved, he said.

Anyone who spots a distressed turtle should contact NOAA.

Marine ordered freed in Iraq war crime case Julie Watson

Associated Press

SAN DIEGO (AP) — The U.S. Marine Corps released a sergeant Friday whose murder conviction was overturned in a major blow to the military’s prosecution of Iraq war crimes.

Sgt. Lawrence Hutchins III, of Plymouth, Mass., walked out of the brig at the Marine Corps Miramar Air Station in San Diego after having served more than half of his 11-year sentence.

“The emotions I am feeling right now are hard to describe,” Hutchins said in a statement issued through his attorney. “I am overcome. This is all I ever wanted.”

Once his release paperwork

was processed, Hutchins was to be transported by Marine Corps officials to Camp Pendleton, where he would check in to his new unit at the base’s headquarters, said Marine Corps spokesman Lt. Col. Joseph Kloppel.

Hutchins led an eight-man squad accused of kidnapping an Iraqi man from his home in April 2006, marching him to a ditch and shooting him to death in the village of Hamdania.

Hutchins has said he thought the man — who turned out to be a retired policeman — was an insurgent leader.

None of the other seven squad members served more than 18 months.

The Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces overturned

Hutchins’ conviction on June 26, supporting his claims that his rights were violated when he was held in solitary confinement without access to a lawyer for seven days during his 2006 interrogation in Iraq.

The move was the latest in a series of twists for Hutchins, whose case was overturned once by a lower court three years ago only to be reinstated in 2011 by the same court that agreed with his latest petition.

Under the military justice system, Hutchins could not be freed until the court ruled on a Navy motion in response to the June 26 decision.

Prosecutors asked the court to reconsider its decision to toss out the conviction, saying Hutchins waived his right to counsel at the time and will-

fully told his side of the story without coercion.

The court Thursday denied that request and issued a mandate that he be released.

The case, however, is not closed.

The Navy can order the case be retried or prosecutors can appeal to the Supreme Court.

The Navy issued a statement Friday saying it was exploring those options and a decision is expected next month.

Kloppel said the Camp Pendleton unit Hutchins will be assigned to will determine his job assignment.

Hutchins’ military attorney, Maj. Babu Kaza, said Hutchins will live off base in nearby Oceanside with his wife and two children.

Mich. judge: Detroit bankruptcy move is illegal DETROIT (AP) — A judge is ordering Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder to withdraw Detroit’s bankruptcy petition, saying the state is illegally trampling the rights of pensioners.

However, the decision is unlikely to have any effect on the bankruptcy. That’s because once a bankruptcy filing is made, it generally trumps other litigation in state courts.

Ingham County Judge Rosemarie Aquilina’s decision Friday came in a lawsuit filed by Detroit pensioners.

The judge had planned an emergency hearing Thursday, but Detroit then filed for

bankruptcy protection.

The judge says plaintiffs in the case were “blindsided.”

The attorney general’s office says it will take Aquilina’s order to the state appeals court.

Aurora victims honored, gun groups stage protest Dan Elliot

Associated Press

AURORA, Colo. (AP) — Survivors of mass shootings in Colorado and Connecticut gathered with dozens of supporters Friday in a suburban Denver park to honor those killed in the massacre at an Aurora movie theater almost a year to the day after the attack.

Vigil participants read a list of names of those killed in recent gun violence around the nation and talked about the pain of losing loved ones as they called for strict federal gun control laws.

“Why wait any longer?” asked Carlee Soto, whose sister was killed at the Sandy Hook Elementary School rampage in Newtown, Conn. “The time for change is now.”

Mayors Against Illegal Guns, which pro-

motes tough gun laws and was founded by New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, helped sponsor the vigil.

The scene was somber, even as about 100 gun rights activists held a protest nearby to oppose new firearms restrictions as infringements on Second Amendment rights. Many wore orange National Rifle Association hats and T-shirts reading, “I will not comply.”

“To the families and victims of the tragedy, we offer our condolences and prayers,” said Dudley Brown, executive director of Rocky Mountain Gun Owners.

“To Mayor Bloomberg and the group that would politicize this, we offer our opposition.”

Brown helped organize the rally and carried a .45-caliber pistol

to the park.

The shooting victims, meanwhile, called for more universal background checks and tighter restrictions on gun sales. Colorado has been the only state outside the East Coast to ratchet back gun rights in reaction to last year’s mass shootings. A recent push for new federal restrictions failed in Congress.

“I think that Coloradans get it, that something must change,” said Tom Sullivan, whose son Alex was killed in the theater.

Just before their rally started, one gun rights activist, Rob Blancken, tried to stand behind a lectern with a sign that read, “Tell billionaire Mayor Bloomberg to stay the hell out of Colorado.” He was told to move by a state parks ranger.

Gun rights organizers

said they sympathized with the victims but didn’t see new gun control laws as a solution.

“We want the families of the victims to know that we are sorry for their loss,” said Alicia Perez, a Colorado organizer with Gun Rights Across America.

For his part, Stephen Barton, who was wounded in Aurora, said, “You shouldn’t wait until it affects you to start caring about it.”

“I never thought I would ever be affected by gun violence personally,” Barton added.

Mayors Against Illegal Guns said participants were reading the names of about 2,500 people who have been killed by gunfire since Dec. 14, when a gunman killed 20 firstgraders and six adults at Sandy Hook.

The Aurora vigil came almost a year to the day after 12 peo-

ple were killed and 70 others were wounded, some paralyzed, in a July 20 attack at a midnight showing of “The Dark Knight Rises.”

The victims’ names were being read until 12:38 a.m. Saturday, the moment that the shootings began in the theater last year.

The theater planned no midnight showings on July 20 this year.

Seven police officers were in the theater lobby Friday afternoon, and another was outside near an exit.

Remembrance events planned for Saturday included an early morning memorial service and a host of volunteer civic works, music, arts and even meditation.

Aurora officials say they wanted to promote healing.

Associated Press writer Thomas Peipert contributed to this report.

By Francis Drake What kind of day will Monday be? To find out what the stars say, read the forecast given for your birth sign.

For Monday, July 22, 2013 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Today’s Full Moon might stress relationships with others. Try to stay mellow and refrain from saying anything you will later regret.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Relations with authority figures are dicey today because of the Full Moon tension. People are emotional and heated. Patience is your best recourse.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Avoid controversial subjects like politics, religion and racial issues today, because people are upset.

Today is a Full Moon day, which means everyone’s feelings are a bit raw.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) This is a poor day to discuss how to divide an inheritance or deal with insurance matters, taxes and debt. It’s a Full Moon, and people are not ready to listen.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Today is the only Full Moon all year that is opposite your sign. Just accept this, and be patient with partners and close friends.

Smile and agree with them.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Be patient with co-workers and people related to your job, because this is a Full Moon day. Even dogs and cats can feel it. (The Moon influences bodies of water, and that’s what we are.)

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Parents will have to be more understanding with children today because kids

could be upset due to the tension of the Full Moon.

(You were a kid once yourself.)

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Avoid family arguments today, which might arise due to the tension of today’s Full Moon. Do what you can to keep the peace. (The quickest way to stop an argument is to agree.)

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) This is an accident-prone day for your sign because of the tension building up in everyone due to today’s Full Moon. Be aware of this in whatever you’re doing.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Avoid making rash money decisions with your possessions. Today’s Full Moon might confuse your decision-making process.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Today the only Full Moon in your sign all year is taking place. That’s why it’s easy to be impatient with others! Just cool your heels and stay frosty.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Even if you feel annoyed with co-workers today, especially if you are seeking privacy, there’s little you can do. Be cooperative and tolerant. (Today is the Full Moon.)

YOU BORN TODAY You have style and class, which is a good thing because you are success-oriented. (You know how to impress.) You also are courageous and not afraid of obstacles and misfortune. Even if your career has ups and downs, you persevere. This is why you succeed in life. Good news: This year might be one of the most powerful years of your life. Dream big!

Asthma meds have surprising side effects

DEAR DR. ROACH: I read your column on asthma regarding inhalers. I have tried Spiriva, Advair, Symbicort and an oral pill, which I cannot remember the name of.

All of these caused the same side effects: extreme fatigue, difficulty urinating and tremors, so I do not take any of these at present and have talked to my lung doctor, and he has me use Ventolin and oxygen.

I am able to use the Ventolin once without any side effects, and I do not use oxygen during the day. I do use it at night while sleeping.

right. I’m 94 years young and still work an eight-hour day, four days per week. But my job includes hanging clothes, folding, etc., and it involves the fingers and hands. — A.M. ANSWER: Tendons, which attach muscle to bone, travel in the finger in a sheath, which protects and lubricates the tendon. Sometimes, the sheath can become inflamed and the tendon sticks there — which leaves your finger in a bent position, sometimes painfully. Trigger finger is when the tendon to the finger gets stuck in its sheath. It is not related to carpal tunnel or arthritis.

This is one instance where exercise does not help; in fact, it helps to rest the hand. Your doctor may have you wear a splint to really rest the finger.

(I think you have earned some time off.) The doctor, usually an orthopedic surgeon, also might inject the finger with a steroid anti-inflammatory, though this may take up to three times to work. Surgery is necessary only uncommonly.

Family dog plays favorites with hand that feeds him DEAR ABBY: My family has had our dog “Pouncer” for 10 years. He was originally bought to be a “family” dog, but I am the one who feeds and takes care of him. Because of that he sleeps with me and licks and obeys only me.

When I say Pouncer is my dog, the rest of my family chews me out and insists he is the family’s dog, not mine. Don’t you think I have the right to call him my dog? — WILLIE IN WEST VIRGINIA DEAR WILLIE: I think this is less a question about ownership than it is about tact. Because you are the one who feeds and takes care of Pouncer, and he sleeps with you and obeys only you — in that sense, he IS your dog. But unless you are the only one paying for his food and veterinary bills and the roof over his head, Pouncer is also the family’s dog. Remember that and you’ll get chewed out less often.

Odds & Ends MARSHFIELD, Wis. (AP) — A masked robber apparently thought the 96-year-old owner of a neighborhood grocery store in Marshfield would be an easy target for his crime. But, he was so wrong.

Margaretta Wolf has owned the store bearing her family name for 54 years. And she wasn’t about to turn over her cash to the armed intruder after he ordered her to open the cash register.

“I said: ‘I’m not opening up that cash register and that’s it, I’m not opening it. I said you can have all the Tootsie Rolls you want but I am not opening that cash register,’” said Wolf.

The man in the silver mask and carrying a knife continued to give Wolf orders during the robbery attempt Monday.

“He said, ‘Walk in the back of the store,’ I said, ‘I’m not walking no place, I’m standing right here,’” Wolf recounted. The elderly store owner stood her ground when the man flashed a pocketknife and placed it on the counter.

“I said, ‘I’ll press a button and I’ll have somebody here in seconds,’” she said.

Wolf said the would-be robber appeared frustrated, looked around, spotted a security camera in the corner, grabbed the knife and fled.

Marshfield Police Lt. Darren Larsen said he’s just glad Wolf is OK. “In this instance, certainly again while not recommended with what took place, we’re just very, very happy Marge was not injured,” Larsen told WAOW-TV. Wolf said she has a few words for the suspect when police catch up with him.

“What do I say to him? I say I think you got some punishments coming, and it will be a little bit more than scrubbing the floor,” she said.

The second inning was the clincher for VanDyne Crotty as they copped 14 runs with Larry Piatt socking a grand slam and Keith Dilbone tripling for the only extra base hits. Dennis Lee and Darrell Lathrop combined for the winners, fanning 11.

Frantz Brother also erupted in one inning, bringing in 10 runs in the fourth. Steve Laux led the crew with a homer and two triples, while Jim Van Tilburg and John Kimbro also smacked round rippers. Doug Banker and Greg Laux added triples for the winners and Cromes one for the Shriners.

Jimenez finds the fun GULLANE, Scotland (AP) — Miguel Angel Jimenez looked like the only guy who was having fun.

On a punishing day at Muirfield — the course with a reputation as the fairest links of them all — leave it to a 49-year-old Spaniard who enjoys the simple pleasures in life to make such a demanding test at the British Open seem like just another round of golf.

There was calamity all around him Friday.

Zach Johnson lost the lead with a three-putt from 10 feet.

Brandt Snedeker, regarded as one of the best putters in golf, took four putts from 15 feet. Tiger Woods played well enough to be only one shot behind and rarely smiled.

Jimenez, with his frizzy red hair bunched into a ponytail, made his way around Muirfield with only two bogeys for an even-par 71 that gave him a one-shot lead over Woods, Lee Westwood, Henrik Stenson and Dustin Johnson going into the weekend.

What’s a 49-year-old doing with the 36-hole lead at the British Open?

“Why? I have not the right to do it? Only the young people can do it?” Jimenez said.

“Why? I’m fine. We keep playing golf and still get myself on the golf course, and that’s the secret. Enjoy yourself what you do in life. That’s what I’m doing.”

For so many others, it was tough to enjoy anything about a course that brought the easterly wind for the first time all week, and greens that hit warp speed even after tournament officials hand-watered the putting surfaces overnight.

Woods went 12 holes without a birdie, saving his round with a collection of tough pars, and he finished with a 6-iron from 212 yards to 15 feet for a birdie and a 71. Westwood matched the best round of the day with a 68, while Stenson had a 70. Both of them had a double bogey on their cards.

Dustin Johnson got himself into such a predicament on the 15th that his only option from

a bunker was to aim sideways into the rough. He shot 72.

“Every hole is playing hard,” Johnson said. “You don’t get any breaks. You’ve really got to grind it out. It’s tough off the tee. It’s tough on your approach shot and it’s tough putting.”

Phil Mickelson was in range of the lead until a four-putt on the 16th hole, his second double bogey of the day. That was one hole after Mickelson made a par putt that would have gone 15 feet by if he had missed.

Zach Johnson couldn’t think of too many poor shots he hit in the blazing sunshine, except maybe for a pitching wedge he punched from 158 yards that bounded over the back of the 15th green. He chipped to 10 feet and took three putts from there for a double bogey, and he dropped one more shot on the final hole for a 75.

“I enjoy difficult tests,” said Johnson, who won the 2007 Masters in the toughest conditions at Augusta in more than

50 years. “I think everyone does. ‘Fun’ … you’ve got to use that term loosely. What’s fun about it is that we don’t see this but once a year.”

The reference was to links golf, though such brown, brittle conditions have not been seen at the Open since Hoylake in 2006, and the greens there weren’t nearly that quick.

Mickelson said the Muirfield greens in these conditions were faster than Augusta.

Jimenez, who was at 3-under 139, has his own definition.

“The fun does not mean you have the biggest smile and start laughing all day,” he said.

“Fun is when you enjoy what you’re doing. I play golf and I enjoy it. And it’s fun to me, no? Sometimes you can see me serious because of a situation, but having fun doesn’t mean that you are falling on the ground and start laughing.”

What about leading the British Open, with a chance at 49 to be the oldest major cham-

pion in golf history?

“Then you put the smile on the face,” he said.

If he cared to look behind him, Jimenez might have reason to be concerned.

The biggest name was Woods, already a four-time winner this year who has been steering his way around Muirfield with mainly irons that go forever on the rock-hard fairways. More ominous is that he is making so many important putts, even if they are for par.

“There will be no surprise to me if he’s picking up the claret jug on Sunday night,” said Graeme McDowell, who played with Woods and was seven shots behind. “But I’m not writing off the rest of the field. There’s quality players here in this field, and I’m certainly not writing myself off.

But if he continues to play the way he’s playing, he’s going to be tough to beat.”

Phillips plates 3, Reds beat Pirates CINCINNATI (AP) — Brandon Phillips drove in three runs with a bases-loaded double on Friday night, and Mike Leake got the better of left-hander Francisco Liriano for the third time this season, leading the Cincinnati Reds to a 5-3 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates that tightened the NL Central.

The third-place Reds moved to within three games of secondplace Pittsburgh. The Pirates lead their season series 6-5.

The Reds sent nine batters to the plate for four runs in the fifth off Liriano (9-4), who had his shortest outing of the season. Chris Heisey’s infield single drove in the first run, and Phillips’ double off Justin Wilson made it 5-0.

Heisey also had a solo homer off Liriano, who is 0-3 in three starts against Leake and the Reds this season.

Leake (9-4) gave up solo homers to Starling Marte, Andrew McCutchen and Russell Martin in the sixth inning. Manny Parra fanned Pedro Alvarez with runners on second and third to end the seventh.

Aroldis Chapman struck out two in the ninth while getting his 22nd save in 25 chances.

Cincinnati Reds’ Chris Heisey gets a hit off Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Francisco Liriano to drive in a run in the fifth inning of a baseball game Friday in Cincinnati. Russell Martin catches at right.

— the Reds 10 times, the Pirates nine times — in their 11 games.

Nobody was hit on Friday, a rare game that didn’t leave a mark.

The Pirates emerged from the All-Star break with their best record in 37 years. Their 56 wins were their most at the break since the World Series champion Pirates of 1971 had 57 wins.

Pittsburgh’s overriding question: Can it avoid another second-half meltdown and break a two-decade streak of losing?

The Reds are trying to duplicate what they did last season, when they went on a surge after the break and ran away to the NL Central title. First, they need to get healthy. Top starter Johnny Cueto, set-up men Sean Marshall and Jonathan Broxton, and cleanup hitter Ryan Ludwick are still on the disabled list.

Heisey took over in left field when Ludwick got hurt, then pulled his right hamstring and missed nearly two months. His

solo shot on Friday gave him three homers since his return.

Shin-Soo Choo singled during Cincinnati’s four-run fifth, extending his hitting streak to 13 games, matching his career high.

Phillips’ decisive double came a few hours after a magazine released an interview with the All-Star second baseman in which he said he’s still “scarred” by the Reds’ decision to give Joey Votto a 10-year, $225 million extension in 2012 while he was in tough negotiations for an extension of his own. Votto said he understood Phillips’ opinion and appreciated his honesty.

NOTES: Pirates 2B Neil Walker started a rehab assignment with Triple-A Indianapolis on Friday. He’ll play three games and get evaluated. He’s been on the 15-day DL since June 7 with soreness in his right side. … 1B Garrett Jones’ error ended Pittsburgh streak of 41 innings without one, matching their season high. … The Reds called up INF Neftali Soto from Triple-A Louisville, filling the spot opened when LH Tony Cingrani was sent down on Wednesday. …

Manager Dusty Baker said LH reliever Sean Marshall suffered a “minor setback” in his throwing program. Marshall has been on the DL since April 10 with a sore pitching shoulder.

Votto OK with Phillips comment about contract CINCINNATI (AP) — Reds first baseman Joey Votto said he understands why second baseman Brandon Phillips questioned his big contract extension during a magazine interview that was released on Friday.

In the upcoming issue of Cincinnati Magazine, Phillips is quoted as saying he is “still scarred” that the front office gave Votto a 10-year, $225 million extension in 2012, when the first baseman still had two years left on his contract.

At the time, Phillips was in his option year trying to get a multiyear extension. He thought his chances of staying in Cincinnati were gone because Votto got such a big deal. Phillips wound up agreeing to a fiveyear extension worth $72.5 million a few days later.

The two infielders started for the National League in the All-Star game on Wednesday.

Votto is under contract through 2023, Phillips through 2017.

Votto said on Friday before the start of a series against the Pittsburgh Pirates that Phillips had talked to him about the matter and he had no problems with the comments.

“Brandon is always totally honest,” Votto said. “He’s been my teammate for six or seven

years now, and I love playing with him. I have a tremendous amount of respect for him.

“What he said has nothing to do with me, but what he had to say makes me like him even more. He’s honest. Most players stick to using catch phrases — like I’m doing now — but he will tell you how he feels at that moment.”

Phillips said he was surprised that Votto got such a big deal based upon what general manager Walt Jocketty and owner Bob Castellini had been telling him while negotiating the second baseman’s deal.

“Do I feel like they lied to me?” Phillips said. “If someone tells me they don’t have no money and you find $200 million somewhere, what does that sound like? You tell me.

“I’m very happy for Joey, don’t get me wrong.

I’m happy for everything that happened to Joey. I thought for myself, I was done. I was mad that I thought I wasn’t going to be a Cincinnati Red anymore.”

Castellini and Jocketty honored Phillips, Votto and reliever Aroldis Chapman on the field Friday for their appearances in the All-Star game.

Browns sign rookies McFadden, Bryant CLEVELAND (AP) — The Browns have signed rookie cornerback Leon McFadden and troubled defensive lineman Armonty Bryant to four-year contracts.

McFadden, a third-round pick from San Diego State, was signed Friday as the team’s rookies reported for training camp. McFadden is expected to compete for the starting job opposite mainstay Joe Haden. The 5-foot-9, 195-pounder was selected 68th overall by the Browns.

Bryant was arrested on drunken-driving charges shortly after he was drafted

by Cleveland in April out of East Central (Okla.)

University. The 6-foot-4, 265-pound Bryant also was arrested on a felony drug charge while in school.

Bryant vowed at last month’s NFL rookie symposium to reward the team for its faith in him.

49ers, Buccs trade SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) — The San Francisco 49ers have acquired cornerback Eric Wright in a trade with Tampa Bay that sends a conditional selection in the 2014 draft to the Buccaneers.

The Bucs announced the deal Friday.

Wright joined Tampa Bay last season and played in 10 games, finishing with 37 tackles and one interception. In

2011 with the Detroit Lions, Wright started 16 games and had four interceptions. He will join a crowded secondary and crop of cornerbacks, including Carlos Rogers, Tarell Brown, Chris Culliver and Nnamdi Asomugha.

The 49ers did announce earlier Friday that they had waived cornerback Lowell Rose, who was signed as an undrafted free agent May 7.

Bynum proclaims Cavs a playoff team INDEPENDENCE, Ohio (AP) — Just minutes after signing with Cleveland, Andrew Bynum proclaimed the Cavaliers to be a playoff team.

Whether his ailing knees allow him to be the starting center remains to be seen.

“Getting my career on track is my only goal for the season,” Bynum said Friday at his introductory press conference Friday. “The Cavs have given me every opportunity to succeed, and we’ve put together a plan. I really believe in the doctors here and the training staff.

“I want to play a full season, and there is no doubt in my mind I can do that. I’m going to be ready for training camp, that’s the plan.”

Bynum signed a two-year, $24 million contract with the Cavaliers, officially ending his star-crossed stay with the Philadelphia 76ers. The 7-footer missed all of last season with knee problems after being acquired from the Lakers in a four-team trade.

Though Bynum underwent bilateral arthroscopic surgery on both knees in March and has not been medically cleared to run, Cleveland general manager Chris Grant made him the team’s top priority in free agency. The 25-year-old also was courted by the Mavericks and Hawks.

“We’re all aware of what his injuries have been,” Grant said.

“He’s also well aware of that and has taken ownership of the process. Andrew is in a different place right now and he’s excited to move forward. We’re going to do everything we possibly can.”

The Cavaliers only guaranteed Bynum $6 million in the first year of the deal, but he could earn an additional $6 million through performance incentives. Cleveland holds a $12 million team option for the second season.

Cleveland Cavaliers’ Andrew Bynum answers questions during an NBA basketball news conference on Friday in Independence, Ohio. Cavaliers’ general manager Chris Grant, left, watches. Bynum was introduced after agreeing to terms on a two-year contract with the Cavaliers.

Bynum, who hasn’t appeared in an NBA game since May 21, 2012, made $16.9 million last year with Philadelphia. He averaged 18.7 points and 11.7 rebounds for the Lakers two seasons ago — earning his lone All-Star selection — while playing under Cavaliers coach Mike Brown.

“I was an All-Star in this league, but I feel like I still have a lot of room to grow,” said Bynum, the No. 10 overall pick in the 2005 draft. “I had a year off, a year to watch basketball and learn the game from the outside in. I saw what I need to do.

“With the time off, I’ve been able to get the swelling in my knees out, so I’m anxious and ready to start. I’ve already moved to Cleveland, and come Monday, I’ll be working here every day.”

The New Jersey native Tristan Thompson.

“Kyrie’s talent is world appeared to be in good shape, which he credited to “non- renowned,” Bynum said. “Not weight bearing exercises I’ve having had the opportunity to been doing to strengthen my play with a great point guard, legs.” Bynum added that he a great one-five (point guardweighed 305 pounds, but center) combination is always planned on being at his playing a key in this game that we play.

“I also can’t wait to play with weight of 285 by the start of Anderson, honestly, because he the regular season.

If Bynum is healthy, he brings a kind of energy and pasgives the Cavaliers a formi- sion for the game that I haven’t dable three-man core with All- been around before. We have Star point guard Kyrie Irving the talent, and we definitely and power forward Anderson have an opportunity to go far.”

The 76ers had the same Varejao. Cleveland signed point guard Jarrett Jack and small intentions last year, but skidforward Earl Clark earlier in ded to a 34-48 campaign after this free agency period, giving dealing All-Star swingman it three additions with signifi- Andre Iguodala and center Nikola Vucevic as part of the cant playoff experience.

The Cavaliers also drafted package for Bynum. His work UNLV power forward Anthony ethic was called into question Sidney News, Saturday, Juneunable 29, 2013 when he was to play Bennett with the top Daily overall pick, and has another develop- in November, and his repuing big man in third-year pro tation suffered more damage

after opting for season-ending surgery five months later.

“I was completely surprised with the way things turned out in Philly,” said Bynum, who has a .566 career field goal percentage. “I showed up and I was in playing shape, and I had every intention of playing. It’s just unfortunate it didn’t work out.

The criticism, I thought, was unfair, but it comes with the territory.”

Cleveland went 24-58 last season, making it 64-166 in three years since Akron native LeBron James left the franchise to sign with the Miami Heat as a free agent. James is eligible to opt out of his contract next summer, when the Cavaliers will be at least $20 million under the salary cap and hope to add the final piece to their puzzle.

Bynum understands that he can’t change what occurred in Philadelphia, but he can affect the future in Cleveland.

“I want to get this team back into the playoffs and make some noise,” he said. “The Cleveland fans deserve that. I will bring leadership and experience to the great young nucleus of guys we have here. We have the talent. Now, all it’s going to take is hard work, and I’m willing to do that.”

—— NOTES: The Cavaliers waived PF Kevin Jones and PG Chris Quinn in order to clear the salary cap room to sign Bynum. Both players were on Cleveland’s summer league roster, but had non-guaranteed contracts. … The Cavaliers have renounced the rights to PF Luke Walton, but Grant said the door remains open for him to return. … Russian rookie SF Sergey Karasev will make his first visit to Cleveland next week. The No. 19 pick in the Pageprofes2B draft has been playing sionally overseas, but will join the Cavaliers this season.

OUTDOORS Ohio fishing report Ohio fishing report Inland Lakes and Rivers NORTHWEST OHIO Sandusky Bay (Ottawa and Erie Counties) - Once the water levels settle down from recent the storms, anglers should be able to catch some nice channel catfish in the Bay. Public fishing accesses include the Willow Point Wildlife Area off of Wahl Road, Pipe Creek, Pickerel Creek, and and the Sandusky Bay Bridge Fishing Access off of State Route 2. Try using worms,

shrimp, or chicken livers fished on the bottom.

SOUTHWEST OHIO Stillwater River (Miami County) Smallmouth bass are being caught by anglers using artificial soft craws and real soft craws. Lead headed jigs tipped with a curly tail or other soft bait. The best color choices are black and green or pumpkinseed.

OHIO RIVER Water levels on the Ohio River have been unusually high in the past weeks due to the abnormally large rainfall events.

While levels have gone down in many places, the release of water still creates strong currents and unfavorable conditions. Anglers are encouraged to check water levels before deciding to fish.

Lake Erie Western Basin •Walleye fishing was good over the past week (as of 7/16). The best areas were between West Sister Island and Middle Sister Island, off of Crane Creek, Northwest Reef (W of North Bass Island), and between Kelleys Island Shoal and the Canadian border. Trollers have been catching fish on worm harnesses or with divers and spoons. Drifters are using worm harnesses with bottom bouncers or are casting mayfly rigs.

•Yellow perch fishing was good over the past week (as of 7/16). The best areas have been the gravel pit, "B" can of the Camp Perry firing range, between Rattlesnake Island and West Reef, between Kelleys Island and Lakeside, and E of the Kelleys Island airport. Perch spreaders with shiners fished near the bottom produce the most fish.

•Smallmouth Bass fishing has been very good around South Bass Island. Anglers are using soft-craws, tube jigs, and crankbaits. Largemouth bass fishing has also been good in harbors and nearshore areas around Catawba and Marblehead .

Central Basin • Walleye fishing has been good at the weather buoy between Vermilion and Lorain near the Canadian border, in 20-24' of water NE of Rocky River, in 32-42' of water N of Edgewater, in 68-72' of water NE of Geneva, and in 68-72' of water N of Ashtabula. Anglers are trolling dipsy and jet divers with worm harnesses and yellow ,orange, pink, green and purple spoons with copper backs.

• Yellow perch fishing has been excellent in 39-43' of water off of Avon point, Edgewater, Eastlake/Mentor, Fairport Harbor, Ashtabula, and Conneaut. Shore anglers are catching a few fish off the E. 55 St pier in Cleveland, the Mentor Headlands pier, and the short pier on the Grand River. Spreaders with shiners fished near the bottom produce the most fish.

• Smallmouth bass fishing has been excellent in 15 to 25' of water around harbor areas in Cleveland (5-20' of water), Fairport Harbor, Geneva, Ashtabula and Conneaut. Largemouth bass are also being caught in the same areas. Anglers are using crankbaits, spinnerbaits, tube jigs, curly tail grubs, soft-craws and leeches.

• White Bass has been fair in the evenings off Euclid Beach and Sims Park in Euclid and the short pier in Fairport Harbor. Anglers are using agitators with jigs and small spoons.

• The water temperature is 74 degrees off of Toledo and 68 degrees off of Cleveland according to the nearshore marine forecast.

HOROSCOPE

BY FRANCES DRAKE

For Sunday, July 21, 2013 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Discussions with bosses, parents, teachers and VIPs will be completely unpredictable today. Don't push your luck. Don't wake the sleeping giant.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Travel plans will be canceled, delayed or changed today. Ditto for plans related to higher education, schooling and anything related to medicine and the law.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Expect a few surprises with shared property, inheritances, insurance matters and anything to do with whatever you own jointly with others. Check your bank account. Stay in the loop.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Someone close to you might demand more freedom in the relationship or say something that shocks you. Today is full of little surprises where you least expect them.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Your routine might suffer from computer crashes, power outages, fire drills or canceled appointments today.

Allow extra time and wiggle room to cope with any of these possibilities.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Parent should be extra vigilant about their children, because this is an accident-prone day for their kids. Romantic partners also might have surprises or lover's spats.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Your home routine will be interrupted today. Small appliances might break down or minor breakages could occur.

Be patient with family members to keep the peace.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) This is an accident-prone day for your sign, so pay attention to everything you say and do. Slow down and take it easy.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Everything to do with your cash and your possessions is unpredictable today. Keep your eyes open. Keep your receipts and count your change. Guard against loss or theft.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) You feel rebellious, impulsive and impatient today. Guard against saying something rash or reckless, and then later regretting it. ("What was I thinking?")

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) You feel generally restless today. You might not be sure why, but you have that feeling you're waiting for the other shoe to drop. (Invariably, it's ugly and not in your size.)

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) A friend might surprise you today or say something shocking. Conversely, you might meet a real character today, especially in a group. Perhaps this person will cause you to change your goals or, alternatively, leave the group.

YOU BORN TODAY Whether you are flamboyant or quiet, you are an adventurer. You want life to be stimulating and exciting. This is why you often seek out daring occupations or hobbies. You have a biting wit and are not afraid to shock others (in fact, you enjoy it). Look for opportunities to study and learn something valuable this year because it will make a difference to your future.
