South Florida Science Center’s latest exhibit lets kids experience
LIFE IN THE FAST LANE By MARY THURWACHTER Palms West Monthly
WEST PALM BEACH — Kids of all ages are descending upon the South Florida Science Center and Aquarium to build cars, airplanes and even vehicles of the future. This isn’t the latest tech startup, but rather the recently-opened exhibit “Travel Adventure” that’s based on the world of Lego. There, guests will find pits filled with millions of Lego bricks where they will be able to journey throughout the world via interactive exhibits that take them on an extraordinary adventure to exotic locations through all kinds of terrain. Kids (grown-ups, too) can use their creative-thinking skills to plan and build vehicles to move through mountains, jungles, oceans and deserts while learning about the history of travel and imagining the future of transportation. Families are invited to dress up as pilots, sailors, racers and world explorers as
they take the wheel of life-sized Lego vehicles and partake in dynamic play. Visitors like 7-year-old Chase Lynch can share their creations through a photography booth set up against a destination backdrop. They can visit San Francisco, Paris, Hawaii and other real-life destinations, all while learning about travel history. Lynch, a second grader at Western Academy Charter School in Royal Palm Beach, had fun building a car, but also enjoyed another mode of play-making travel. “I like the airplane simulator,” says Lynch, who lives in Wellington. “You can go different places like Paris, San Francisco and Hawaii.” He could make similar journeys via Lego cars, he found out. Juan Carballo, 8, also a second grader at Western Academy, found another use for the Lego car he constructed. “I take it to the race track (part of the exhibit),” he says. “I really like to build things and racing cars is fun.” Carballo, who lives in Royal Palm Beach, says he has Lego products at home and gave the exhibit two thumbs up. The show, which continues through Sept. 23, is already a hit and management at the South Florida Science Center couldn’t be more pleased. “The exhibit is doing exceptionally well so far,” says Kate Arrizza, the science center’s new CEO. “Opening weekend set new records for attendance. As the school year comes to a close, we will add more Lego brick building workshops, competitions and mini-figure trading events to draw in even more visitors. This summer we will be the ‘it’ place to visit.”
Arrizza says the summer exhibit gives children a good change from school, but still inspires learning. “Travel Adventure,” says Arrizza, is a perfect fusion of family fun and sneaking in learning on the side – which is exactly what the center’s summer audience wants. “It encourages learning through play, giving families a break from school books while still providing an enriching experience,” she says. “Lego bricks are more popular than ever, making this one of our most exciting summer exhibits yet.” There’s large Lego dioramas that tell the story of the transcontinental railroad connecting the nation in 1869; of Henry Ford’s Model T in 1909; and of steam engines on ships crossing the Atlantic Ocean in 1910. Elsewhere, younger children stay fascinated with the much larger Duplo bricks, which they use to build great towers – only to knock them all over when they finish. Arrizza’s own children are big fans of “Travel Adventure,” too. “I could not peel my kids away from this exhibit,” she says. “In every corner, there are hands-on components that allow them to build something new. Their imaginations were stimulated, STEM skills were tested and they even learned about world history.” “Travel Adventure” was developed at the Children’s Museum in Minneapolis. “The exhibit is in keeping with our recent blockbuster shows including ‘Our Body’ and the more recent ‘Astronaut’ exhibits,” says Melinda Grenz, director of marketing at the Science Center. “We’re trying to keep up the momentum.” That appears to be happening. Grenz says kids who come see the exhibit will learn history, geography, SEE LEGO / PAGE 9

Partnership with The Lord’s Place aims to keep downtown clean
Downtown West Palm Beach is looking brighter after the launch of a new “Downtown Clean Team” program that partners the West Palm Beach Downtown Development Authority with The Lord’s Place. The program offers part-time jobs to formerly homeless individuals to keep the Downtown District clean. In bright uniforms, the new crew will be responsible for clearing litter, removing graffiti, maintaining sidewalks and reporting maintenance issues such as broken street lights or landscaping problems. “With training and support, we are providing an opportunity for previously homeless individuals to work toward personal independence and full-time employment,” said Raphael Clemente, DDA executive director. The program is managed through The Lord’s Place Employment and Training Program. “This program is a

West Palm Beach recently to toast a special “Evening in the Gardens” at the 5th annual Gardens Conservancy’s cocktail reception. Comprised of high-level donors, the reception provided a platform to present the Ann Norton Award for Philanthropy, extended to individuals who advance the ideals set forth with Ann Norton’s vision for the Gardens to serve as her legacy to the community. The 2018 award was presented to Becky and David Gochman. “We are grateful for Becky and David’s outstanding leadership and commitment to the Gardens and the manner in which they creatively weave their passion for the arts, education and environment to enrich the experiences offered here,” said Frances Fisher, ANSG Board chairman and founder of the Gardens Conservancy. Launched in 2014, annual Gardens Conservancy membership starts at a $500 donation. Donors receive complimentary admission to the Gardens, art openings, an invitation to the Conservancy’s annual event and discounted tickets to special events. The Sculpture Gardens is located at 253 Barcelona Rd. in West Palm Beach.
Adopt-A-Family of the Palm Beaches kicked off its “Hope Begins with a Home” affordable housing capital campaign with a $1 million gift from a private donor. The funding will support the soon-to-be-built Third Avenue Homes development in Lake Worth, which, when completed, will provide housing to 14 families who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless. The $1 million gift, along with other contributions, is an encouraging start to the campaign’s goal of reaching $6.6 million. “This extremely generous gift will make an impact on generations of children and families. It could not come at a better time for our community,” said Matthew Constantine, CEO of Adopt-A-Family. “We are forever grateful for this donor’s gift and their faith in us to put families on the path to selfreliance and offer children a stable future.” To provide families with a successful path to self-sufficiency, families residing in the Third Avenue Homes will pay approximately half of the market rate for rent and parents will participate in programs including financial and computer literacy, parenting classes and mental health counseling, if needed. Children will have access to tutoring, mentoring, and Adopt-A-Family’s Project Grow program, an after-school educational program for kindergarten through fifth grade students. For the past two decades, Adopt-A-Family has received nationwide recognition for its programs and management. The Florida Redevelopment Association recently recognized the charity with the prestigious Roy Kenzie Award for Outstanding Affordable Housing Project. For information about giving opportunities to support Third Avenue Homes, call Matthew Constantine at (561) 253-1362.

SCENE FROM WEST PALM by Aaron Wormus | awormus@palmswestmonthly.com
Summer is perfect time to check out area’s newest eateries That’s all folks! We’re officially done with season. Parties are over, the GreenMarket is gone and no more charity events to go to. Snowbirds have flown back up north and we have our beautiful little city back to ourselves for another six months. It’s been an eventful season. Our beautiful weather is always a draw, but much more so when our northern counterparts were experiencing one of the coldest winters in years. Our dining scene has been energized, both downtown and in our north and south dining districts. It seems that there’s a new place popping up every few weeks and they all seem great. And now, with the season behind us, it’s time for us locals to check them out.
Mazie’s
Featuring “New World Comfort Food,” Mazie’s is located on S. Dixie Highway’s Restaurant Row. It’s owned and operated by chef Eric Baker, formerly of Delray Beach’s Max’s Harvest, and Jason Lakow, the
former GM of Café Boulud. Brunch is served from 11 to 2:30 p.m. and dinner begins at 5 p.m. The dinner menu features a variety of entrées ($19$30) and plenty of choices. With each entrée, patrons can choose two sides from an amazing selection of 12 options. Entrées also come with a sauce, and there’s another 12 to choose from. The dinner menu also features shared platters. There’s also daily specials ($20-$40) as well as weekly favorites, including “Chinese Take Out” on Sundays.
Basque at Biba
The fresh new Basque opened in March at Hotel Biba at 320 Belvedere Rd. in West Palm Beach’s El Cid neighborhood. The menu features both classic and modern interpretations of Spanish food. Tapas, boards, entrées and paella ($28-$38) are served from a custom-built, sleek 22-foot mobile kitchen. With our legendary rainy season getting started, Basque recently started a “When it Rains, We Pour” promotion
featuring half-price tapas and drinks until the rain stops. “We don’t shut down for rain. We party!” exclaims owner Manny Bornia. Basque is open Wednesdays through Saturdays from 5 to 10 p.m.
Pétanque Kitchen & Bar
Since the closing of Le Rendez-vous, we’ve missed the work of French brothers Vincent and Olivier. They’re now back with a fantastic concept in Northwood Village. Pétanque Kitchen & Bar, at 517 Northwood Rd., is named after a courtyard ball game that originated in coastal towns in southern France. It serves up a charcuterie ($16-$32) and burgers, as well as tartarines, salads and desserts. (You must try the Nutella Banana Panini!) Pétanque is open Tuesdays through Saturdays from 5 p.m. to midnight. You can enjoy happy hour, listen to live music, and of course play a game of Pétanque in the backyard patio.

West Palm, Habitat for Humanity On Stage Theater & Concerts partner up for ‘Summer in Paradise’ BB&T Center
In an effort to raise awareness for the need of affordable housing, the City of West Palm Beach is partnering with Habitat for Humanity of Palm Beach County in the 2018 version of its seasonal “Summer in Paradise” campaign. The result: fifteen child-size colorful playhouses, collectively referred to as the “Fairy Tale Playhouses,” are coming to downtown, where Palm Beach County artists will be matched with local nonprofits who will build the homes. Once built, the artists will transform the playhouses into unique representations of popular fairy tales, much like last year’s popular Aesop’s Tables. The playhouses will be ready for display on the Great Lawn of the West Palm Beach waterfront beginning June 7. They will remain on display through July 26, when they will be auctioned off to support the corresponding nonprofits. In the meantime, the unique playhouses will provide entertainment and shade to the smallest of waterfront visitors, and great photo opportunities for residents and visitors alike. The partnership with Habitat for Humanity carries a meaningful message, as the mission of the organization is to build simple, decent and affordable housing for low to very low-income families around the world. “I am so pleased that this year’s ‘Summer in Paradise’ will deliver measurable impact, and – through our partnership with Habitat for Humanity of Palm Beach County – it continues the community conversation about the need for affordable housing for all,” said West Palm Beach Mayor Jeri Muoio.

The 15 artists and nonprofits were selected through an application process and, once matched, were assigned a fairy tale. Artists will interpret their fairy tale, with stories spanning the globe to reflect Habitat for Humanity’s worldwide reach. Featured fairy tales include “Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox,” from North America; “The Boy and the Dragon,” from Canada; “Rapunzel,” from Germany; “Anansi,” as well as many others. Participating nonprofits include Adopt-AFamily of the Palm Beaches, Inc., Autism Speaks, Homeless Coalition of Palm Beach County, Palm Beach Habilitation Center, Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League, Police Athletic League of West Palm Beach, The Arc of Palm Beach County and The Lord’s Place, as well as many more. “We are so pleased with the continued goodwill ‘Summer in Paradise’ is able to bring to the local community,” said Mary Pinak, Community Events Manager for the City of West Palm Beach Department of Parks and Recreation. “Our response to ‘Aesop’s Tables’ last year was so incredible – we raised more than $11,000 for our local community – so we knew we had to carry on this tradition and do something similar.” The “Summer in Paradise” promotion includes other ongoing waterfront activities and an expanded lineup of Clematis by Night offerings, booking twice as many bands and extending entertainment hours to 10 p.m. For more information about “Summer in Paradise,” and other waterfront events, go online to wpb.org/events.

THE VILLAGE IDIOT by Jim Mullen
Traveling? Better master the art of the perfect selfie I’ve been traveling for the past few weeks, trying to cross a few things off my bucket list. Things like “find the Fountain of Youth,” “find a new imaginary friend,” “reconcile with family (but not Bob),” “visit a bunch of famous places that are so packed with tourists that all you see is other tourists.” I’ve learned that people don’t travel now to see famous attractions or to learn more about them. No, the reason they pack four oversized bags, buy a plane ticket and take a taxi to a Wonder of the World is for the sole purpose of taking pictures of themselves in front of it. As if having your face in the photo will somehow improve the overall look of the Eiffel Tower or the Grand Canyon. And there’s an entire process to it. First, you must position yourself looking away from the attraction, then you hold your phone arm out as far as it will go, knocking out anyone walking nearby. Then you snap your selfie and walk away. No, just kidding. You then look at the picture you just took, play with your hair, consider the angle and the lighting and do it again. Wait, somebody walked behind you; let’s try that again. Now let’s try it again with a friend. Or two. Then you send the picture to your friend who was standing right next to you. Now multiply this scene
by a thousand or two. Add a few thousand selfie-sticks, and there you have the modern tourist experience: being clubbed to death by other tourists. Which will, of course, be filmed by hundreds of other tourists, and who knows? Your ugly death may go viral. Sheer karmic gold. Sure, tourists have taken pictures ever since the portable camera came along, but taking pictures today is a much, much different experience. And, it seems there’s a much different motive behind it. There’s a feeling out there now that the

whole point of doing anything is to take a picture of it, to record it. “This is me at my birthday party at a restaurant” is now “This is me getting my morning coffee at the drive-thru,” followed by a vulgar emoticon. Thanks so much for sharing. If you are just taking a selfie to prove you were there, what does that say about your friends? If they’re not going to take your word for it, maybe you should be looking for new ones. Some think they’re taking it for the memories. Do you really think you’re going to forget that you flew to France,
got from the airport to your hotel, walked to the Eiffel Tower and even stood in line to go to the top? If you did all that, I bet you can remember how hot or cold it was, how long or short the line was, all the different languages that you heard, all the street food cooking around you, the pesky scammers who ask you where the Eiffel Tower is – and when you tell them they’re standing under it, they are so grateful that they have a real leather coat to sell for just “$20 U.S.,” which is the European version of “it fell off the truck.”
Heck, I can remember all of it and I wasn’t even there. I think we’re lucky the camera phone wasn’t invented thousands of years ago. Yes, it’d be nice to have documentary photos of historic events, but if we took them with today’s mindset, we’d have to look at the bizarre spectacle of Brutus’ smiling face while his friends finish off Ceasar in the background. Or a wide-eyed closeup of one of the spectators while Anne Boleyn has her head on the block. You’d be able to see everything BUT the really interesting stuff. “Can you see that little speck behind me? That’s Jesus giving the Sermon on the Mount. Doesn’t my hair look good?

U.S. seeking 1 million for massive study of DNA, health habits stay healthy despite smoking or pollution or poor nutrition? “We have no idea how those people escape those odds,” he said.
By LAURAN NEERGAARD AP Medical Writer
WASHINGTON — Wanted: A million people willing to share their DNA and 10 years of health habits, big and small, for science. On May 6, the U.S. government opened nationwide enrollment for an ambitious experiment: If they can build a large enough database comparing the genetics, lifestyles and environments of people from all walks of life, researchers hope to learn why some escape illness and others don’t, and better customize ways to prevent and treat disease. “A national adventure that is going to transform medical care,” is how Dr. Francis Collins, director of the National Institutes of Health, describes his agency’s All of Us Research Program. Congress has authorized $1.45 billion over 10 years for the project. It all hinges on whether enough people around the country will sign up, either online or through participating health centers. There’s already interest: More than 25,000 people got early entry to the project over the past year through an invitation-only pilot test run by participating universities and health providers.
Why study so many?
Most of today’s medical care is based on what happened
Learn your results

In this Aug. 7, 2017, file photo, Stephanie Richurk, a nurse at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, sorts blood samples collected from participants in the “All of Us” research program in Pittsburgh. The National Institutes of Health announced on May 1 that it will open nationwide enrollment and is seeking one million volunteers to share their DNA and medical records.
to the average person in short studies of a few hundred or thousand patients with a specific health condition. And most people who volunteer for those studies are white, leaving questions about the best care for people of different races. “One-size-fits-all is far from an optimal strategy,” Collins said on May 1, in announcing enrollment for All of Us. The project involves “precision medicine,” using traits that
make us unique to forecast and treat disease. Learning enough to individualize care requires studying a massive number of participants: The healthy and not-so-healthy, young and old, rural and urban, blue-collar and white-collar – and people of all races and ethnicities. For now, participants must be at least 18. Next year, the study will open to children, too. While there are other big “biobanks” of genetic data from at least 100,000 people, the NIH

s
project aims to be the largest and most diverse of its kind. At least half of the participants must be from groups traditionally under-represented in medical research, Collins stressed.
Genes aren’t the whole story
Sure, what genes you harbor can raise your risk for various diseases. But other factors can increase or reduce some genetic risks. First volunteers will share electronic health records and blood samples, and answer periodic questionnaires about their diet, sleep, environmental exposures and other lifestyle factors. They might wear fitness trackers and other sensors. And later this year they’ll start undergoing genetic testing, initially to look for so-called “variants” in DNA that affect disease risk, similar to what some private companies now sell, Collins said. Fully mapping the genetic code is too pricey now for a million people, but that more comprehensive approach eventually will be used with some participants, too. Among the first lessons Collins hopes to learn is about resilience: Why do some people
Unlike with most medical studies, participants can choose to see their own test results and share them with their physician long before the study reaches any big-picture conclusions. A caution: There are still many questions about how best to use the results of genetic tests. Still, “we will try to help their doctors sort through what it means,” Collins said. One result that might bring a quick benefit: Genetic variants can signal who is prone to side effects from more than 100 drugs, information that could be used to prescribe a safer drug if only their doctors knew, Collins added.
Protecting privacy
The privacy of DNA databases made headlines recently when investigators used a free genealogy website to track down a suspected California serial killer. That’s pretty different than the security under which medical DNA must be handled. NIH said it has taken as many steps as possible to safeguard against would-be hackers. Volunteers’ medical data is stripped of identifying information and replaced with a code. Only scientists meeting specific security requirements will be cleared to study the data. NIH also said federal “certificates of confidentiality” prohibit disclosure to law enforcement. Privacy wasn’t a worry for Michelle McNeely, 41, an early participant at Dallas’ Baylor Scot & White Health System. She underwent breast cancer treatment in 2016 and considers taking part in All of Us a way to give back. “If they can use my genes and someone’s genes in California and someone’s genes in New York to find some common ground, to help discover some cure – they can use my genes all day long,” McNeely said.

Man charged with shooting smoke detector to quiet it
BARTON, Vt. — A Vermont man is facing charges that he used a shotgun to silence a smoke detector in the kitchen of his apartment. Police say two shots fired from the 20-gauge shotgun owned by 68-year-old Leroy Mason, of Barton, hit the adjoining wall of an occupied apartment. Police say Mason has complained about frequent false alarms from his smoke detector, and he was upset fire crews wouldn’t relocate it so he “took it upon himself to relocate the smoke detector, and shot it with the shotgun.” Emergency personnel say they took the shotgun from Mason, who then pointed a handgun at them while demanding his shotgun. Emergency crews disarmed Mason. There were no injuries.
Officials: Man robs same bank day after release from prison
CLEVELAND — Authorities say a man sent to state prison for bank robbery has robbed the same Cleveland bank branch the day after his release. Federal prosecutors in Cleveland say 40-year-old Markiko Sonnie Lewis was indicted recently on one count of bank robbery for robbing a Cleveland Key Bank branch April 12. Prosecutors say he took just over $1,000. Lewis, of Maple Heights, was sentenced to 30 months in prison in Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Court in April 2016, including time already served, after pleading guilty to robbing the same bank branch in November 2015. He was released April 11.
Idaho firefighters rescue pet cow stuck between 2 trees
MIDDLETON, Idaho — Idaho firefighters say they had to think outside the box during a
recent assignment: getting a pet cow out of two trees. The Idaho Statesman reports the Middleton Rural Fire District crew found Dixie the cow wedged between two trees in rural Canyon County in western Idaho. Middleton Fire Deputy Chief Victor Islas says they are not sure how Dixie lodged herself between the trees, but think she might have been scratching herself and kept moving. Middleton Fire consulted with firefighters from the Sand Hollow Fire Protection District who had experience with cows on the best method to get her out. The firefighters were eventually able to free her by applying lithium grease on her sides and pushing her out.
Student takes Danny DeVito cardboard cutout to prom
CARLISLE, Pa. — A Pennsylvania high school student took an unorthodox approach to prom and brought a cardboard cutout of actor Danny DeVito to the dance. WHTM-TV reports Allison Closs and her famous twodimensional date joined other Carlisle High School seniors recently for prom. Closs purchased the cutout of DeVito online along with a scooter she used to move the figure with. DeVito starred in the classic TV series “Taxi” and films including “Twins” and “Batman Returns.” He also stars in the hit comedy “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.”
started when Hill joined a Facebook group called “Good or Bad Jersey Businesses” he assumed was about the U.S. state. He posted a comment on the page that garnered 1,500 likes. Jersey resident Alex Dolan saw it and launched a crowdfunding effort that raised enough money to bring Hill and his girlfriend to the island. The couple was fed, housed and shown around for free. Hill called Jersey residents “super friendly.”
Ohio transit bus driver accident-free over 1 million miles CLEVELAND — If you need to ride a public transit bus in Cleveland and Cuyahoga County, there’s no better person behind the wheel than Godwin McNeal. Cleveland.com reports the 64-year-old McNeal has been a driver for the Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority for 40 years, logging an estimated 1.2 million miles without causing an accident. Officials say it’s the longest preventable accidentfree streak in the RTA’s history. McNeal has been driving a 63-foot-long bus along on Euclid Avenue, one of Cleveland’s main thoroughfares, weekdays for the last five years from 2:30 a.m. until 1:30 p.m. without breaks. Asked what his secret might be, McNeal said he doesn’t think about it. He then added that patience is needed.
McNeal hopes to retire in 2020 with his streak intact.
Better late than never: Library gets book 47 years overdue
SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. — A book nearly five decades overdue has been returned to the San Francisco Public Library. The copy of Eldridge Cleaver’s memoir “Soul On Ice” was due back at the Eureka Valley branch Dec. 9, 1970, making it 47 years, four months and 29 days late. The library’s late fee would’ve been $1,731.70 if it didn’t cap the fine at $10.01. The San Francisco Chronicle reports the paperback’s cover is detached from its spine and there’s a hole in the title page. Branch manager Anne Vannucchi told the Chronicle last week she’d like to know who the library patron is so she can get the story behind the returned book. A man at another branch last year returned his greatgrandmother’s book titled “Forty Minutes Late” – but it was more than 100 years late.
Buried treasure found in NYC; pirates nowhere in sight
NEW YORK — A couple of urban island-dwellers have found buried treasure in their backyard – but so far the pirates are nowhere in sight. WCBS says a safe containing about $52,000 worth of property – including diamonds, gold, jade and soaking wet cash – has been uncovered on Staten Island. Matthew and Maria Colonna Emanuel always thought the rusting hulk of metal jutting out beneath some trees was just a cable box. They were having some trees replaced when the mystery unfolded. The safe also held a paper with an address. Matthew Emanuel knocked on their neighbor’s door and asked if they’d ever been burglarized. Bingo. The police report dates to 2011. Maria Colonna Emanuel says there was never a question about returning the loot. She says simply: “It wasn’t ours.”
Who knew Jersey and New Jersey were different places?
BOSTON — An American college student who didn’t know the difference between the U.S. state of New Jersey and the British Channel Island of Jersey is clear about the distinction now. Joe Hill, of Plymouth, Mass., returned recently from a vacation on the island off the coast of France that was paid for by Jersey residents. The Boston Globe reports it

Cryptic Quotation
I may be an older guy, but I assure you that there’s still plenty of “pep” left in this Pepper! I love people and food … maybe a little too much. Being an older gent, I have developed some cataracts and I’m on medication for my thyroid. But I don’t let it get me down, because as long as I take my daily meds I feel great! So how about you put a little “pep” in my step and adopt me? Interested in adopting this cat or another dog or cat? Visit Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League, 3100 N. Military Tr. in West Palm Beach, or go online to PeggyAdams.org to see available pets currently in need of a forever home.

Aries (March 21 - April 20) You’d be better off if you didn’t have to deal with people who think they know everything. You can’t be heard when others have a my way or the highway type of attitude. It could be time to get out. Taurus (April 21 - May 21) You’re having a hard time admitting you screwed up. Trying to build something lasting on a big fat mistake will catch up with you sooner or later. Telling the truth would be easier than pretending everything’s cool. Gemini (May 22 - June 21) You know you can’t keep doing this – but letting it go could leave you in an unstable position. What you have to lose is nothing compared to what you will gain if you set yourself free. Don’t be afraid to stretch your boundaries. Cancer (June 22 - July 23) Your relationship will work as soon as you learn to stop taking care of whatever your partner refuses to deal with. You’re not a surrogate parent. They won’t grow up until you stop treating them like a child.
Leo (July 24 - Aug. 23) Rejection issues are strong. Some is imaginary and some is real. If people seem to be putting you off don’t take it personally. Sometimes the people we love have other priorities. Virgo (Aug. 24 - Sept. 23) You’re plate has filled up with too much to do. You can do this if you just take one thing at a time. Be thankful that you’re busy. It’s distracting you from your real difficulties. Libra (Sept. 24 - Oct. 23) Doing the right thing isn’t always what’s right for you. You have a choice to make. Others will be upset and display all kinds of bad behavior if you can’t agree to their terms. Don’t let their tantrums affect your decision. Scorpio (Oct. 24 - Nov. 22) What you think you owe people is all in your mind. When you look at this you’ll see that you’re the one who isn’t getting their needs met. Instead of always being the one doing the giving, start thinking about what you deserve. Sagittarius (Nov. 23 - Dec. 21) If everyone would settle down you’d
feel a whole lot better. Chaos in their lives has shaken you up. All this would be less stressful if you told them you’ve had it with their nonsense; would they kindly peddle it elsewhere. Capricorn (Dec. 22 - Jan. 20) Interesting developments have blown you away. As good as this looks you need to be careful. Before you get too involved, check people out thoroughly. They either have ulterior motives or they can’t give you what you want. Aquarius (Jan. 21 - Feb. 19) You’ve got just weeks before things get crazy. Thank God you’re on the ball. It’s hard to say what form the turmoil will take, but your ability to roll with the punches will lessen the stress. Pisces (Feb. 20 - March 20) Your soul is dying to free itself from all the things that keep happiness at bay. Self-help manuals and Oprah’s advice won’t resolve this. Your issues are too unique to categorize. Releasing them will call you to dig a little deeper.
