GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You'll be disillusioned by the suggestions made by a colleague, friend or employer. Don't be too eager to agree to do some- Dilbert thing before you have all the fine details in writing. Your can-do attitude will lead to impulsive mistakes. CANCER (June 21-July 22): Positive actions will bring stellar results. Shopping for a special gift or spending money on your appearance will pay off. A unique relationship with someone who is different than you will be enlight- ening. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Don't lend or borrow money or possessions. Bring about changes at home that will add to your comfort and bring you greater sta- bility. You don't have to pay the expens- Garfield es of others. Offer your time, not your money, if someone is asking for help. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Don't sulk or refuse to take part in events or activities because something doesn't go your way. Step outside your comfort zone and offer intelligent, honest suggestions. Your participation will encourage others to see the value you bring. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Take the plunge and do something you've always wanted to do. Check out travel deals or attend a festive gathering. Being a part of the action will result in greater confidence and new friends. Beetle Bailey Share your thoughts with like-minded people. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Emotional matters will escalate if you don't make your position clear. Trying to spare someone's feelings or avoid opposition will not bring about the changes you wish to see. Evaluate your situation and do what needs to be done. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Your desire for change and adventure will get you into financial trouble. Don't make plans you cannot afford. Uncertainty should be your signal to step back and wait for better opportuni- Dennis the Menace By Ned Classics ties. Indulgence will be your downfall. By Conrad Day CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Let others come to you. Be wary of attracting people who are indecisive or who want to place restrictions on your plans. Avoid dealing with financial, legal or medical institutions. Make time for romance. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Look for a way to give back to your community. Volunteering to help an organization, school or hospital will be satisfying and give you an idea for future projects. A gift, winning or money from an unusual source looks promising. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Lay out some plans and options for someone you love, and work as a team to decide what you want to do in the future. Plan a romantic getaway or make a promise to share more time and activities with one another. Birthday Baby: You are strong, stubborn and outgoing. You are pro- gressive and impulsive. www.clevelandbanner.com Cleveland Daily Banner—Tuesday, December 15, 2015— 7

A large majority also want a clearer explanation from President Barack Obama about his strategy to defeat the group.

Obama recently dispatched about 50 special operations forces to coordinate the fight in Syria, adding to the more than 3,000 troops already in Iraq. But he and most other politicians oppose sending a large American contingent to augment the U.S.-led coali- tion air campaign. Most Republicans running for president have not called for that, either, although Donald Trump recently said he would support 10,000 troops, a figure originally floated by South Carolina Sen.
