Notes from the Editor Can’t believe it’s been over a week and I’m still fighting this cold. I did however try two of the “It Works!” tips when I had a sore throat. Licorice and marshmallows do help sooth a sore throat. Be cautious, you might end up eating the entire bag of marshmallows like I did. It’s nice to have the tramway up and running again after their scheduled maintenance. Can’t wait for snow fall, that’s my favorite time to visit. Don’t forget to enter the tramways snow guessing contest. Good luck! Desert Trip is finally here, wish I was going. Would really love to see The Rolling Stones, Mick Jagger has to be one of the best performers to
hit the stage. Neil Young is one of my favorites, “Harvest Moon” is one of my top five favorite albums. Highly recommend listening to the album on a lazy Sunday morning. Speaking of music, you’ll notice in the “Bookmark It”, page 13, that Brian Wilson from the Beach Boys has a book coming out. Should be an interesting read. This week’s recipe sounds very delicious, even though I’m not a big fan of rice but love everything else that’s included in the recipe. Feel free to send me your favorite recipes. Be careful this weekend if you travel east ..... José

PUZZLE PAGE
HOROSCOPE OCTOBER 6 - 12 ARIES (March 21-April 19). Your deepest desire is to have the clarity to see how to live your situation for the best and highest good of all involved. Truly, all you want for yourself is to live in the way that lifts and supports the whole.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Your plan is solid; now everything relies on the execution. Herculean efforts are not necessary. Consistent efforts will win out. Break it down. You’ll be surprised at what you can do in just a few minutes every day.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Small temptations are more addictive than they seem and should be avoided. The minor dalliance that occurs daily is far more destructive than the major indulgence that happens once every blue moon.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Saying “yes” may be the only move you see that makes any sense to you, but it also happens to be the wise move that will feed your soul, fill your bank account and put you in a better position tomorrow.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). When you can’t decide what to do, take yourself out of the hot seat. Relax a minute. From the perspective of a calm mind it will be much easier to see what the next right thing is.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). When you enter the room, it’s yours — at least for the next minute. That’s the newcomer’s advantage, and you’d be silly not to play it for all it’s worth today. What do you want them to see in you?
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Don’t skip the first step, which is identifying the problem correctly. Step two: Discerning whose problem it really is. It is a waste of time to chase solutions to the wrong problems or the problems that are not even yours.
8
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Maybe there is no such thing as the perfect mate, but there are many wonderful individuals who want to spend time with you and will enhance your experience of life in one way or another.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Yes, there are times when the long view of years helps your perspective immensely, but today it’s about the moments instead — milking the sweetness from each one. There will be so much to savor.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’ll have a greater awareness of the mystical nature of daily life. There must be more to this existence than the eye can detect. Today begins a quest to see with more than your eyes.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your dormant talents will spring forward to handle the task. It’s as though the work has been placed before you by someone who knows you even better than you know yourself.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You don’t have to assert social dominance in order to have it. In fact, that posturing, bossy person is likely feeling insecure, which reads pretty clear. Your confidence is quietly commanding.

Rice is a staple food for roughly half of humanity (second only to wheat as the world’s largest crop) with an estimated 8,000 varieties under cultivation. Recent digs in South Korea show evidence of domestication 15,000 years ago. It can be adapted to a variety of climates, and properly stored, it retains its nutritional value for years. It’s also incredibly versatile, working equally well as a simple side, a main dish (as in Fried Rice), and a salad. This rice salad is perfect as a side for roast chicken or as a packable next-day lunch. You can use any kind of rice you have leftover— jasmine, basmati or brown. And if you’re pressed for time and don’t happen to have leftover rice on hand, you can sub in two packages of instant microwave rice that comes in a pouch—a wonderful timesaver and must-have pantry staple.
Mediterranean Rice Salad
Roasted bell peppers, garbanzo beans and feta cheese made this salad shine. • 3 cups cold leftover rice • 1/3 cup Italian dressing • 1 roasted red bell pepper, chopped (1/2 cup) • 1 (15-ounce) can garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese • Fresh basil (optional) 1. Combine all ingredients in a bowl. Toss well. Serve room temperature or chilled. Serves 6.

It Works! Use Honey to Help Dry Skin Honey is considered one of the best natural moisturizers loaded with antioxidant, antimicrobial, and humectant properties. Thus, it helps lock in moisture to make your skin extra soft and smooth. Plus, honey has many essential vitamins and minerals that help improve your skin’s health. Before taking a bath or shower, rub honey all over your body and leave it on for five to 10 minutes. Repeat daily to enjoy well-moisturized skin.
Measure out equal parts of unprocessed honey, beeswax, and olive oil. Melt the beeswax in a small pan over low heat. Remove it from the heat and mix in the honey and then the olive oil. Apply this mixture all over your body and leave it on for 10 minutes. Then take a shower. Repeat daily or every other day.

Bookmark it! New and Upcoming Reads I Am Brian Wilson: A Memoir
Filthy Rich
The book reveals as never before the man who fought his way back to stability and creative relevance, who became a mesmerizing live artist, who forced himself to reckon with his own complex legacy, and who finally completed Smile, the legendary unfinished Beach Boys record that had become synonymous with both his genius and its destabilization. Today Brian Wilson is older, calmer, and filled with perspective and forgiveness. Whether he’s talking about his childhood, his bandmates, or his own inner demons, Wilson’s story, unforgettably illuminates the man behind the music, working through the turbulence and discord to achieve, at last, a new harmony.
Jeffrey Epstein rose from humble origins to the rarefied heights of New York City’s financial elite. A college dropout with an instinct for numbers—and for people, Epstein amassed his wealth through a combination of access and skill. But even after he had it all, he wanted more. And that unceasing desire, especially a taste for young girls, resulted in his stunning fall from grace. FILTHY RICH examines all sides of a case that scandalized one of America’s richest communities. An explosive true story, FILTHY RICH is a riveting account of wealth, power and the influence they bring to bear on the American justice system.
