Horoscope Aries

Things in the love department may be looking up for you, Aries, but beware that you aren't getting pushed around. Your partner could feel the need for more freedom in the relationship, while you're hoping to find more commitment. Take it one day at a time. Don't get ahead of yourself by projecting scenarios that may not come to fruition. You're only setting yourself up for disappointment. If you own your home, the value of your equity may have gone up in the recent past, Aries. Income through land or property is strongly indicated. This is likely to change your life in a subtle but positive way. This is a great time to buy or sell a home. If you're in the process of doing it now, this is the perfect time to get some of the paperwork prepared.

Juventus ended Celtic's Champions League campaign by beating Neil Lennon's side in Turin and completing a comfortable aggregate win. Early Celtic promise from Joe Ledley's rising shot was tempered when Alessandro Matri followed up on Fabio Quagliarella's shot to score. Gary Hooper almost turned in an away goal off Georgios Samaras' centre. Efe Ambrose wasted a header for the visitors, then Andrea Pirlo and Arturo Vidal combined to set up Quagliarella. Loud home support cascaded down from the high, steep stands of the Juventus Stadium as Celtic got to grips with playing in the 18-month-old venue. The first sharp intake of breath came in the ninth minute when a bobbling ball on the edge of the box fell for Celtic's Beram Kayal to blast off a defender. It was an encouraging sign that further chances could well come the visitors' way. Paul Pogba looked the most menacing for Juve as the game reached the 15-minute mark, the Frenchman surging from midfield to attack effortlessly as he looked to unlock Celtic's defence. On 21 minutes, a Kris Commons pass found Ledley just outside the box and the Welshman's strike narrowly missed the junction of Gianluigi Buffon's post and crossbar. Celtic's hopes were still flickering, but three minutes later they were all but extinguished.

Jewell's appearance before the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources comes as government auditors have faulted Interior for lax oversight and cozy dealings with the oil and gas industry. Among lapses tallied by investigators: Agency officials who find violations, for example in record keeping or environmental management, rarely hand out fines. Important paperwork routinely goes missing at the sprawling agency.

The Government Accountability Office, the investigative arm of Congress, has singled Interior out as among the agencies most vulnerable to fraud, waste or abuse. Obama has drawn mostly praise for his choice of the conservation-minded chief executive of outdoor equipment retailer REI to lead an agency that oversees more than 80 million acres (32 million hectares) of recreation area under the National Park Service. But since about a third of U.S. oil and gas comes from Interior-managed land as well as about 40 percent of the nation's coal, Jewell would also be a key member of Obama's energy team. If Jewell is confirmed to succeed departing Secretary Ken Salazar, former agency officials said, getting the most out of oil, gas and coal sales will be one of her biggest tests. "Being a steward of public lands means protecting taxpayers," said Bob Abbey, who was director of the Interior Department's Bureau of Land Management from 2009 to 2012. "At a time of tight budgets, that's an even bigger part of the job." Senator Ron Wyden, Democratic chairman of the energy panel, has welcomed Jewell's nomination and said he expects her to collect every cent due taxpayers. Senator Lisa Murkowski, the panel's top Republican, has also called for taxpayer protections but separately has threatened to put a hold on the nomination unless Jewell promises to address a pending issue in Murkowski's home state of Alaska.

Weather Underground Forecast for Thursday, March 07, 2013. An active weather pattern continues across much of western Europe on Thursday as several disturbances persist across the region. Furthest west, a broad and deep offshore low in the north Atlantic Ocean will maintain across the British Isles and into western France, as it ushers a series of frontal boundaries across the region. These disturbances will lift northward through the day with enough moisture to trigger increased cloud cover and light scattered rain showers in Ireland, North Ireland, and the northern United Kingdom, while chances of showers continue in the southern United Kingdom and northwestern France. Dublin will see overcast skies with chances of rain in the afternoon and a high near 50(F)/10(C), while London experiences mostly cloudy skies with a high near 59(F)/15(C). Paris will experience overcast skies and chances of rain through the day with a daytime high near 55(F)/13(C). To the south, a second area of low pressure associated with the complex system in the Atlantic Ocean will move through the Iberian Peninsula with plenty of moisture and energy. This will translate into another shot of widespread light to moderate rain and isolated thunderstorms that will spread from the southwestern corner of the peninsula northeastward into northeastern Spain by Thursday night. Lisbon will experience rain showers and windy southwest winds on Thursday with a high near 64(F)/18(C), while Madrid sees rain and chances of thunderstorms with a high near 61(F)/16(C). Meanwhile, just east of this activity, a low pressure system in the western Mediterranean Sea will continue on an eastward track and become positioned in the

Tyrrhenian Sea. Associated warm and cold front will spread moisture and precipitation across Italy and countries just east of the Adriatic Sea, as well as, Bulgaria and Greece through the day. Additional precipitation from this system is expected to spread northward through the central mainland, reaching areas of central Germany and Poland by Thursday night. Rome will see a daytime high near 63(F)/17(C) and chance of rain showers. Social news
CARACAS (Reuters) - Weeping and shouting, a sea of Hugo Chavez's supporters paraded his coffin through the streets ofCaracas on Wednesday in an emotional outpouring that could help his deputy win an election and keep his self-styled socialist revolution alive. Hundreds of thousands of "Chavistas" marched behind a hearse carrying the remains of the flamboyant and outspoken president, draped in Venezuela's blue, red and yellow national flag. Avenues resounded with chants of "Chavez lives! The fight goes on!" as supporters showered flowers onto the coffin and jostled to touch it. Loudspeakers played recordings of the charismatic socialist giving speeches and singing. Some supporters held heart-shaped placards that read: "I love Chavez!" Others cheered from rooftops, waving T-shirts. Ending one of Latin America's most remarkable populist rules, Chavez died on Tuesday at age 58 after a two-year battle with cancer that was first detected in his pelvis. His body was to be taken to a military academy later on Wednesday to lie in state until his state funeral on Friday. The future of Chavez's socialist policies, which won him the adoration of poor Venezuelans but infuriated opponents who denounced him as a dictator, now rests on the shoulders of Vice President Nicolas Maduro, the man he tapped to succeed him. "We ask our people to channel this pain into peace," Maduro said. Maduro, a 50-year-old former bus driver and union leader, will probably face Henrique Capriles, the centrist opposition governor of Miranda state, in an election now due within weeks in the OPEC nation with the world's largest oil reserves. One recent opinion poll gave Maduro a strong lead over Capriles, in part because he has received Chavez's blessing as his heir apparent, and he is likely to benefit from the surge of emotion following the president's death. Authorities said the vote would be called within 30 days, as stipulated by the constitution, but did not specify the date.

The tall, mustachioed Maduro has long been a close ally of Chavez. He pledges to continue his legacy and is unlikely to make major policy changes soon. He will now focus on marshalling support from Chavez's diverse coalition, which includes leftist ideologues, business leaders and radical armed groups called "colectivos." Some have suggested Maduro might try to ease tensions with Western investors and the U.S. government. Yet hours before Chavez's death, Maduro alleged that "imperialist" enemies had infected the president with cancer and he expelled two U.S. diplomats accused of conspiring with domestic opponents. A victory by Capriles, 40, a centrist politician who calls Brazil his model for Venezuela, would bring big changes and be welcomed by business groups, although he would probably move cautiously at first to lower the risk of political instability. "Don't be scared. Don't be anxious. Between us all, we're going to guarantee the peace this beloved country deserves," Capriles said in a condolence message, calling for unity and respect for the loss that many felt after Chavez's death.
