You’re successful, possibly beyond your wildest childhood dreams. So why are you still hungry, looking for something more? You love a challenge, that’s why. It’s almost time for you to advance to the next level. You’ll find a new subject fascinating. It’ll be impossible at first, but that’s how you’ll know it’s perfect for you. You won’t be able to let it go. To get the advantage, check the day’s rating: 10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging. ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19) • Today is a 7. A lunch appointment is best for expressing yourself clearly and reaching an agreeable compromise. This should work in business as well as in social and romantic relationships. Finish up old business later, and pay the bills. TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20) - Today is a 7. Keep clearing out the paperwork. You don’t have to read everything. Some things you can file, some you can toss. Sure, decisions must be made, but that’ll get easier. GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 21) Today is an 8. You and your best friend could be having so much fun, you’d like to stay up all night talking. But that’s not a good idea. You’ve got a busy day tomorrow. CANCER (JUNE 22-JULY22) Today is a 7. The decorative touches you’re adding around the house will be noticed. They can add to the romantic mood you’re creating. Tonight should be excellent for entertaining the object of your affections - after the kids have gone to bed, if necessary. LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22) Today is a 7. It takes a great deal of study to master a difficult task. If you have a good teacher, it’s a lot easier. Your attitude can bring out the best in your coach. Chin up! VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22) - Today is a 7. Don’t waste a moment. Send out your resumes. Ask for that raise! Make more widgets to sell. Whatever you do, there’s a way to make more money at it. You’re the one who decides when. Don’t wait! LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT 22) - Today is an 8. Don’t waste time chatting with your friends. You’re charming and witty, so the temptation is there. It would be wiser to use some of that brain power to plan. Being popular is easy. To really prove you’re smart, get rich. SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21) - Today is an 8. The more you know, the more valuable you become, and you’re becoming a veritable treasure trove. That means you’re hearing a lot of important gossip. Keep it safe. SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21) - Today is a 7. What ARE friends for, anyway? Are they just an audience for the jokes you come up with? Or are they there to provide you with a constant source of spiritual renewal, and vice versa? The answer is the latter, and you should be realizing that now. CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19) - Today is a 6. Go for the promotion, better job or raise. Collect old debts while you’re at it. Finding the courage to ask is the toughest part. AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18) - Today is an 8. Don’t get so lost in a personal conversation that you forget to see the boss coming. If you’re a student, behave as if the teacher’s watching. Set up your romantic rendezvous for this weekend, then get back to work. PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20) - Today is a 7. How about taking your date to the best seafood restaurant in town on a Wednesday instead of a Friday? You might want to go on Friday, too. Heck, why not just hang out the “gone fishing” sign for the next three days, or five, or whatever. The fish are biting. Late shows returning to air NEW YORK (AP) - David Let terman didn’t try to be funny and Bill Maher didn’t hide his anger as their late-night shows re turned to television. Letter man opened CBS’ Late Show on Monday seated behind his desk with a somber, five minute monologue focused on last week’s terrorist attacks. The Indianapolis native, who has worked in New York for 20 years, paid tribute to the city’s .police and firefighters and its mayor. “If you didn’t know how to be have, all you had to do at any mo ment was watch the mayor,” he said. “Rudolph Giuliani is the personification of courage.” Letterman struggled to make sense of the attack, saying some people attributed it to religious fervor. “If you live to be a thousand years old, will that make any sense?” he asked. CBS News anchor Dan Rather was an emotional guest, break ing down as he trieh to explain what it was like at one of the dis aster sites. Later, he wept as he recited a verse of “America the Beautiful,” saying Americans will never hear the lyrics the same way again. In Los Angeles, Politically In correct host Bill Maher said the attack had altered his show as well as the country. “It’s going to be a little more serious. I think that’s OK. It’s OK with you?” he asked the audi ence, drawing applause. One of the ABC show’s four guest chairs was empty to honor commenta tor Barbara Olson, who died in the plane that hit the Pentagon. The Late Show wasn’t entire ly comedy-free. Guest Regis Philbin tried to allay Letterman’s stated doubts that he had come back on the air too soon. “Do you think Kathie Lee will come back?” Letterman asked of Philbin’s former talk show co host, Kathie Lee Gifford. “There is somebody who could end this in a hurry,” Philbin replied. “You want a quick end to this, send Kathie L^e over there.” NBC’s Tonight Show with Jay Leno and Late Night with Conan O’Brien return to the air Tues day night. Sen. John McCain, R Ariz., and musical group Crosby, Stills and Nash were the sched uled guests. Comedy Central has kept The Daily Show, a satirical show that . runs four times weekly at 11 p.m., on reruns since the attack. The network decided Monday not to bring the show back live this week, spokesman Tony Fox said. “When you’re talking about a show that is a news parody and the news is so consumed about this tragedy, what’s funny about what’s unfolding here? Nothing," he said. “As someone at the show said succinctly, irony is dead for the moment.” Comedy Central also removed reruns of its sitcom about the president, That’s My Bush!, from the air and has painstakingly gone through its tapes to make sure it is not showing anything insensitive, Fox said.
