MOON ALERT: There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions today. The moon is in Cancer.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

Relations with parents and authority figures might be strained. Resist the urge to be too pushy. Likewise, avoid other people who are pushy. Your best choice is to work hard and get better organized. Fortunately, relations with partners are good.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

Steer clear of squabbles, which can easily arise. You might feel criticized. Or conversely, you might feel critical of someone else? Certainly, you won’t hesitate to express your opinions. Easy does it. Instead, focus on sports, social outings and fun activities with kids.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

Money disputes or quarrels about ownership of something might arise. In fact, you have strong feelings about your possessions. Meanwhile, someone older or perhaps a member of a group might think otherwise? Tread carefully. Talk to family members.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

The moon is lined up with Mars in your sign at odds with Saturn. (Yikes!) This puts a strain on your conversations with others because you might be a tad aggressive and defensive at the same time. This is a poor day to ask for permission or approval from anyone. Just tread water.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

Something going on behind the scenes might rankle you. It might have something to do with rules and regulations, the law or tradition. Whatever it is, you might want to ignore it or fight it. (You might question the wisdom of this.)

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Relations with friends and groups might be tested, especially regarding shared expenses or the division of resources or property. You might feel someone is not being fair? They might demand too much of you? Or you might think they’re not pulling their weight.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

This is a tricky day, because you like to keep the peace and enjoy harmony in all your relationships. But right now your relations with authority figures are testy, even aggressive. You might feel criticized, especially by a partner. Don’t get your belly in a rash.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Be smart and steer clear of controversial subjects like politics, religion and racial issues, because they could quickly explode into an argument. Meanwhile, issues related to your job, work, or even your health seem to be onerous. Seek solitude in pleasant surroundings.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Something to do with socializing or dealing with kids, vacations, the arts or romance might be disappointing. Someone might be too opinionated or coming on too strong. (Hopefully, this person is not you.) Take it easy and lower your expectations. Be reasonable and forgiving.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

This is the classic day for irritable conversations and challenges dealing with spouses, partners and close friends. An older relative or a parent might even be in the mix. Everyone has an opinion and there’s nowhere to run for cover. Send out for dark chocolate.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Although relations with others are aggressive and challenging, nevertheless, you can get a lot of work done. (This might be your best option.) Steer clear of negative thinking as well as hurt feelings. Life is short — and fat.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

Disputes about money and finances, especially if they have to cover the cost of a vacation, social occasion, sporting events or something to do with the entertainment or education of children, are likely. Take your pick. The day has its challenges. Actually, it’s the perfect day for a nap.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Musician Roger Waters (1943) shares your birthday. You are complex. You’re sensitive, organized, brave and adventurous! You look out for the welfare of others. This is a year of learning and teaching. Take time to renew your spiritual beliefs. Explore meditation, prayer or introspection, along with philosophies that give you a better understanding of your life.

Art piece connects viewers to broader national landscape

Allison Gillmor 4 minute read Yesterday at 2:01 AM CDT

WHAT IT IS: Copy Paperis a 2014 textile-based piece by Ontario-born, Winnipeg-based artist Kristin Nelson, currently on view at WAG-Qaumajuq as part of the exhibition Terra Cognita/Incognita.

Of the 125 works in the show — which uses historical and contemporary pieces from WAG-Qaumajuq’s permanent collection to explore how artists have represented the landscape over time and across cultures —probably the most attention-getting are the beautiful paintings of Canada’s lakes, plains, forests and mountains.

So, how does this seemingly modest, somewhat enigmatic work connect to Terra Cognita/Incognita’s larger themes?

WHAT IT’S ABOUT: In the middle of the exhibition, an antique desk holds several objects of beauty and utility, and this is where Copy Paper sneaks in, as something both “cognita and incognita,” known and unknown.

For newcomer pizza purveyors, it’s all about crafting solid foundations

For newcomer pizza purveyors, it’s all about crafting solid foundations

David Sanderson 7 minute read Yesterday at 2:00 AM CDT

A recent poll conducted by an Internet-based market-research firm determined that close to 20 per cent of people eschew their leftover pizza crust.

Some argued that the residual crust lacks flavour. Others submitted that it’s too hard or crunchy to enjoy sans toppings. Given that information, what are we to make of Crusty Craft Pizza, a five-month-old takeout spot whose owners are so confident in their European-style pizza crust that they’ve chosen to highlight it in their business moniker?

Whenever somebody informs them they don’t like pizza crust, their response is, well, they haven’t tried theirs, says Oleksii Samokvhal, who together with his wife, Iryna Mehedyn, opened Crusty Craft Pizza in early April, at 1311 Day St. in Transcona.

“It’s thin in the middle, with raised edges we hand-form ourselves,” says Mehedyn, a native of Ukraine who, like her Kyiv-born husband, relocated to Winnipeg to escape the conflict in their home country.

A life's story: translator, poet, radio host, actor loved life to the fullest

Tiago Resko 7 minute read Yesterday at 3:00 AM CDT

Born with an innate sense of curiosity, Charles Leblanc always wanted to understand the world around him. To him, words and theatre weren’t just pastimes. They were means of understanding the human experience and helping others see different perspectives.

The poet, translator, actor and radio host dedicated his life to this practice, founding the Winnipeg International Writers’ Festival, establishing French community radio station Envol — where he hosted a show for 25 years — and acting as a core member of the Association of Translators, Terminologists and Interpreters of Manitoba.

Leblanc’s contributions and dedication to Manitoba’s arts and literary scenes made an impact that continues to be felt by the community.

He died June 26 at the age of 75.

Dynacare labs quickly reach capacity ahead of strike

Nicole Buffie 4 minute read Yesterday at 3:06 PM CDT

Patients were being turned away from several Dynacare locations Saturday morning as people packed the labs in hopes of getting their blood collection done before workers strike.

By 10:30 a.m. the lobby at the Dynacare at 1581 Regent Ave. was standing-room only and walk-up patients were being turned away as the wait time for those lucky enough to get in creeped past two hours.

One woman got in right before workers cut off walk-ins at 10 a.m. after travelling to two other locations.

“I was driving by at 7:15 this morning and there was already a line-up to the road, so I was like ‘nope, not going there’ so I went to the one on Sterling Lyon (Parkway) and it was closed, and then I went to the one at St. Vital Mall and there had a line zig-zagging all the way through the corridors so I gave up and came back,” said Joanna, who declined to give her last name.

Agriculture sector wary of ‘strong headwind’ from south

Laura Rance-Unger 4 minute read Yesterday at 2:01 AM CDT

Industry analysts talked in circles on a recent webinar as they discussed the implications for agriculture of Canada’s deteriorating relationship with its largest trading partner.

On one hand, panellists for the hastily convened Canadian AgriFood Policy Institute event acknowledged the futility of negotiating on quicksand: a deal made today with the United States might be sucked into the muck tomorrow.

But on the other, webinar panellists speculated with varying degrees of optimism over what it will take to get negotiators back to bargaining.

This disconnect isn’t unique to this cluster of analysts. However, it underscores the difficulty of coming to terms with the seismic shift in America’s attitudes towards Canada.
