These last degrees of the Capricorn sun are like a stern school marm clapping her hands alarmingly as she repeats, "Class, class!" Everyone simmers down and tries to recall what was going on in the moments before all the mayhem started. No doubt it was something less interesting, and more necessary. Attend to finishing the lesson.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). What you forgot about comes to haunt you — this can be most helpful as there is much that could otherwise fall through the cracks. Tonight a new responsibility is added to your list.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Be a good boss to yourself, even when your real boss isn't so hot. You currently have a small margin for error built into your plan. Assign more people to your team to help you out.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You're restructuring your work, streamlining activities to run like a well-oiled machine. A deal hangs in the balance for some of you. For others, it's a matter of gaining peace of mind.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Too many choices can be a bad thing if you don't know yourself well. But lately you've gotten in close contact with your own strengths, limitations and preferences — so bring on the smorgasbord!
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your negotiating skills are needed. A co-worker or client may be backing away from a deal, and it's up to you to keep them in. Tonight, you're in the mood for love — or at least interesting companionship.
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Jan. 15). You'd rather be passionate than peaceful now. There are adventures and accomplishments you've long been after, and it's about time you added them to your panoply of experience. Next month a romantic notion takes you across borders. By March you'll be investing in yourself at a new level. June brings a windfall. Libra and Cancer people adore you. Lucky numbers are: 8, 3, 22, 35 and 31.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). A stressful situation finally eases up. Take a deep breath and let it all go. By tomorrow, whatever was bothering you will be just a memory. Make big plans for the evening to celebrate.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Regarding the project you've worked on for months now — it's time for you to relinquish control. Send your baby into the world. There's only so far you can go on your own, but with the right team, you're unstoppable.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Relationships that are on shaky ground need someone to make a big decision. So why not you? Make a declaration of independence. Your closest kin thank you — eventually.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You get noticed on the job, and people ask for you by name. Positive reviews and excellent word of mouth put your services in demand, especially if you work in the arts.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Relationships have seasons. Though it may be winter outside, it's definitely spring in a special relationship. Make sure there's enough sunshine, in the form of fun, to grow this bond.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). It's important not to rush ahead with judgment or take action that can't be easily undone. Reserve the right to change your mind later — and then don't be too proud to do it!
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The overachiever in you stirs up some trouble. You fear you're not living up to your potential. Then again, who is? As long as you're taking steps in the right direction, all is well.
FORECAST 2007 — VIRGO: The thrills you used to dream about as a child return to you this year. Connecting with ambitions of bygone days gives you vitality and optimism — what could be more attractive? The next three months are busy, social and filled with options.
LOVE: Settle in with someone by April. Work and finances go better when your love life is decided. And for those of you who decided long ago, April is a lovely time to recommit and figure out the new direction your shared life should take.
CAREER: A coach, mentor or boss will be very influential. Accept that you don't know how to get there, and the directions you get in June, followed precisely, will be a straight shot.
ADVENTURE: Your talent for distinguishing the finer points of a deal is put to excellent use during your leisure time. For one thing, the specifics make or break your vacation in August.
FINANCE: Fear disappears when you know you're making the right move. It may take you several months to be sure about an investment or financial change, but there's no big hurry. Wait until you're sure, even if it takes until November.
CELEBRITY PROFILES: Multitalented "phenomenon" LL Cool J tapped in to his monstrous ambitions as a teenager and catapulted himself to worldwide superstardom. Capricorn men tend to mature young and have been known to state their career ambitions accurately as 5-year-olds! From "I Need Love" to his most recent Jennifer Lopez collaboration "Control Myself," LL Cool J continues to deliver those can't-get-them-out-of-your-head hooks paired with smashing beats.

|  | We're not that bright, even though in our own little world, we're geniuses. We like 80s hair bands and one-hit wonders, but among us we have respectable tastes, too. Metallica, Iron Maiden, U2. Pursuit of all things trivial is a lifestyle, not just a game. We like some sports, love other sports, and can find something to say about anything. We watch TV and movies and we've read a book or two, even a few classics (Yes, Classic Comics count!)
We call it insight, you call it what you will. | |

|  | What is up FoCo?
I am a recent college graduate of Minnesota State University Moorhead. After recieving my B.A. in English and Mass Communications this past August I moved down to Colorado.
I enjoy long walks on the beach, candlelight dinners, and heavy metal. My hobbies include reading and writing, music, movies, and getting drunk. Some of my favorite contemporary authors include Bret Easton Ellis, Chuck Palahniuk, and Kurt Vonnegut. My top movies are anything directed by Kubrick. I enjoy listening to anything that rocks.
Right now I am just trying to get to know Colorado and FoCo better. Mostly in order to find the best drink specials on each day that ends in Y. So if you know where I can get a cheap drunk on, let me know!
