keep a family disagreement

SUDOKU
DIFFICULTY THIS WEEK
CAPRICORN (December
22 to January 19) Be careful
not to push people too hard
to meet your ideas of what the
holiday weekend’s preparations
should be. Best to make it a co-
operative, not a coerced, eff ort.
AQUARIUS (January 20 to
February 18) An unexpected
request could make you rethink
a position you’ve had for a long
time. Meanwhile, plan a family
get-together for the weekend.
PISCES (February 19 to
March 20) Someone might fi nd
that it was a fl uke to try to use
your sympathetic nature to get
you to accept a situation you’re
not comfortable with. Good for
you.
BORN THIS WEEK: You like
challenges that are both mental
and physical, and you enjoy
always beating your personal
best.
