CORRECTIONS In an April 14 brief, “Hawkeyes to play two night games,” The Daily Iowan incorrectly reported that Iowa will play Minnesota on Nov. 24. That game is scheduled for Nov. 14. The DI regrets the error.

In a photo cutline for the April 14 story “Canzeri, Daniels ready to go,” the DI incorrectly identified Iowa running back Jordan Canzeri as Akrum Wadley. The DI regrets the error.

Wednesday, April 15, 2015 horoscopes by Eugenia Last ARIES (March 21-April 19): A change of location, as well as in your financial situation, is likely. Take care of taxes or other paperwork that could affect your future. An older relative will need help. Connect with past business associates and an opportunity will develop. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Help someone in need. Don’t fret over the little things. Overreacting will lead to setbacks. An incident will alter the way you think or live. Don’t make physical or emotional changes. Do the necessary research and proceed with caution. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You may feel like shaking things up a bit, but if you overdo it or you are impulsive, you will end up making a mis- take you’ll regret. Stick to what you know, and protect your assets. CANCER (June 21-July 22): Don’t fear change. Use your intelligence and memory to help you maneuver through whatever you face. Your intuition is on point, and with proper application of your skills, you will advance. Don’t let personal matters interfere with your productivity. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Take care of your responsibilities so that you can get on with the things you enjoy. You’ll discover valuable informa- tion from someone you encounter in a competition. Love is in the stars, but don’t let it cost you financially. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): A proactive approach to whatever you do will help you set a high standard and bring about favorable lifestyle changes. An emotional situation must be handled carefully to avoid a mishap or loss. Don’t be fooled by someone’s sob story.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Look at the big picture, and make changes that are worth your while. Avoid anyone trying to push you into being impractical or overindulgent. Don’t take on more than you can handle. Strive for greater security, not on accumulating more un- necessary stuff. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Avoid unpredictable people or anyone trying to force changes you don’t want to make. Look at your situation at home, and figure out a way to cut corners. Lowering your overhead using creative accounting will also ease your stress. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Listen carefully. You’ll be inclined to hear what you want to hear instead of what’s being said. Step back; consid- er the changes that will help you the most. The plan should be to get ahead by doing something you enjoy. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Your intuition and imagination will be overactive when dealing with emotional matters.
