Dining Guide without the help of so many unique contributions. Love will take an unusual twist.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): It will be difficult to pacify others even if you do give in to demands. Concentrate on what you need to accomplish first. Idle chatter will not get the work done or appease those looking for help or results.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Go to where the action is, and step into the limelight. Your charm, intelligence, and expressive way of dealing with others will result in new connections. Romance is in the stars, along with greater opportunity. Children will have an effect on you.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): It will be difficult to know which way to turn. You’ll be asked questions, and solutions will be expected. A confident approach, coupled with expertise, compromise, and adaptability, will win the respect of your peers. Don’t start fights; put them to rest.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Make financial changes that help you engage in pastimes you enjoy. A trip or course that will enable you to raise your earning potential will also bring you in contact with interesting individuals who have something to contribute to your plans.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You’ll be caught in the middle of a situa- tion that cannot be resolved without you. Do your best not to let situations get blown out of proportion when what’s required is a quick fix with as little interference as possible.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Keep whatever you do simple and to the point. Promote and present what you have to offer in such a way that you come across as mysterious but knowledgeable. Keep the drama to a minimum, and let the intrigue build slowly.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Step outside your comfort zone if it will help you resolve an issue that is holding you back. Getting along with people will be dependent upon what you promise and how much of it you deliver. Prepare to go the distance.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Don’t let financial implications stand between you and your success. Focus on what you have to offer and discuss your intentions with someone who has the clout and the backing to help you. What you give away will be worth the returns.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Don’t let confusion take over. The conversations you have with others might not be pertinent to your situation. You have to decide what works best for you and follow through. Don’t feel obligated to do the same as everyone else.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Share your creative ideas, and use your imagination when trying to get others to lend a helping hand. Your charisma will be inviting for new friendships, partner- ships, and the chance to make a commitment that will help you advance.

MORRIS, MEYER box score HONORED Hawkeye captain and senior linebacker James Morris was named the Big Ten Defensive Player of the Week today following Iowa’s 23-7 win over Minnesota. Statistically, Hawks rock Morris recorded 8 tackles and a sack in the win over the Gophers and sealed Iowa’s victory by intercepting Minnesota quarterback Philip Nelson with four min- utes left in the game. The Solon native was instrumental in limiting Minnesota’s rushing total to just 30 yards, giving Iowa its fourth-straight win. Morris is currently tied for 11th in the conference with 31 tackles. Iowa is tied with Northwestern for first place in the conference in turnover margin, with both schools at plus-11. This is the first time Morris has been given such an honor during his playing career. Hawkeye cornerback B.J. Lowery was given the same honor last week after his performance against Western Michigan. Iowa kicker Mike Meyer was also recognized by the Lou Groza Place-Kicker Award as star of the week for his performance against the Gophers. Meyer went 3-of-4 on kicks of 49, 26, and 43 yards at Minnesota, and he converted both his PAT attempts to notch 11 points. Meyer missed also missed a 39-yarder in the second quarter — the ball bounced off the left upright. He is now 8-of-10 for field goals on the year. — by Ben Ross
