Once you the blanket in order to provoke establish your position free and clear of others, you will be able to embrace greater opportunity. such attacks.

Take mistakes a morningwood tent note of anyone using pressure to manipulate a situation you face. for the Blanket Monster. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Tread carefully in social settings. Refrain from making physical changes with the potential to turn out badly. Focus on what you can do to help the underdog or how you can improve your most important relationships. Under-spend, overwork, and you’ll excel. CANCER (June 21-July 22): Network until you get what you want. Your insight and ability to Andrew R.

Focus more on making self-improvements. Push negative people away, and embrace those heading in a similar direction. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Explore new avenues. Follow your basic instincts, and try your hand at something you’ve always wanted to do. Don’t let mishaps at home hold you back. A financial gain can be made if you can separate your funds from someone who tends to overspend. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Expand your knowledge, add to your skills, and most of all, take care of matters that pertain to children, close friends, or a partner who has been jerking you around. Straight communication will lead to answers and solutions. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Bickering will be a waste of time. Emotional issues will continue to escalate if you don’t put your foot down and make a decision regarding whoever is disrupting your life. Follow your heart and your intuition. Love is highlighted. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Keep what you are doing low-key. The less you discuss your personal life, the better. Someone you least expect will try to force you into an argument that is based on false information. Make alterations at home to improve your situation. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Look over personal deals, contracts, and investments. You can make changes that are better suited to the economic climate if you think matters through and make your moves based on your future needs. Back away from impulsive individuals. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Avoid travel or dealing with people from foreign backgrounds. You aren’t likely to get the satisfaction you want or get promises fulfilled. Financial limitations are apparent if you take on additional responsibilities. Make improvements at home that will ease your stress. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): There is money to be made if you invest in something you feel comfortable pursuing. Contracts, settlements, and pending legal matters can be dealt with efficiently. Love is in the stars. Making a promise will help clear up a misconception.

SAN FRANCISCO — In a postseason full of twists and turns, the San Fran- cisco Giants are headed back to the World Se- ries after a big comeback against the defending champs. Hunter Pence got the Giants going with a weird double, Matt Cain pitched his second clincher of Oc- tober, and San Francisco closed out Game 7 of the NL Championship Series in a driving rainstorm, routing the St. Louis Car- dinals, 9-0, Monday night.
