THE SUPER GREEN ISSUE

Website showcases local green practices

BY REBECCA KHEEL Special to the Daily Press

MONTANA AVE Juan Beltran’s helicopter crashed after losing its tail rotor during a test flight while deployed as an U.S. Army pilot in Iraq, leaving him a quadriplegic.

Instead of sulking about his new disability when he came home, Beltran used the money he received from a settlement with the helicopter manufacturer to start a new project, buying a 2.5 acre farm in Chino, Calif., and retrofitting it with green technology and practices. He bought solar panels to install on his roof, uses compost to fertilize and gets a majority of his food from his own farm.

“We have to change our attitudes — that

is first and foremost,” Beltran said of the need for people to think more about how their actions impact the environment. “We tend to take for granted everything as easily accessible. If people were more aware about where everything they use comes from, they’d be a hell of a lot more careful.”

That’s why Beltran agreed to be featured on Working for Green, a website that features videos of everyday people employing green practices in their lives and businesses.

Beltran said he hopes the site will make people more aware of the easy things they can do to be more green in their lives.

Working for Green, which is based in Santa Monica on Montana Avenue, was launched in January with the goal of becoming a social movement that uses the

Internet to teach and inspire eco-friendly business and personal practices, said Susan Neisloss, the founder and president of the site.

The idea for the site came to Neisloss, a former broadcast journalist and public relations executive, during the last presidential election after talking with voters about their economic and environmental worries.

Concerned about the environment herself, Neisloss decided to create the site to show how economic woes can be solved through adopting environmentally-friendly practices without government assistance.

“Working for Green is all about trying to find a way dedicated to the belief that SEE GREEN PAGE 7

DOWNTOWN Megan Kilroy’s favorite place to go in town is the Santa Monica Pier. She thinks its crowded and touristy, but she loves looking out over the edge and watching the waves crash against the pillars.

But when she sees a plastic bag floating in the water, her heart breaks a little bit.

“I was just so mad, I just wanted to dive right in and get it,” she recalled of one instance. “That made me really, really upset.”

Kilroy, a 17-year-old Santa Monica resident, has been nationally recognized for her environmentalist work to protect the oceans, recently winning an award for California teenagers who have exhibited outstanding leadership. Friends and family describe Kilroy as a role model whose passion for helping the environment is inspiring.

Man drowns off Venice Beach THE ASSOCIATED PRESS VENICE Authorities say a man has drowned in the surf at Venice Beach.

Los Angeles County Lifeguard Chief Mickey Gallagher says the victim, a middleaged man, was fishing near the Venice breakwater late Saturday night when he decided to have a quick swim.

The man got caught up in the swift currents and immediately yelled for help, but witnesses say they couldn’t see him in the dark.

A lifeguard crew located the unresponsive victim floating near rocks a half hour later.

He was pronounced dead at a hospital. The victim has not been identified.

A 31-year-old man drowned July 5 after jumping off the Venice Pier. The body of Brian Patrick Dunn was recovered July 11 a few miles to the north in Santa Monica.

’Inception’ earns strong reception with $60.4M THIS WON’T HURT A BIT

AP Movie Writer

LOS ANGELES Leonardo DiCaprio and Christopher Nolan’s “Inception” is anything but a sleeper as the thriller opened big with $60.4 million and a No. 1 finish at the weekend box office, according to studio estimates Sunday.

The Warner Bros. action tale about a team that sneaks into people’s dreams is DiCaprio’s biggest opening weekend, topping his previous best of $41.1 million for last winter’s “Shutter Island.”

“Inception” falls far short of director Christopher Nolan’s best, though. Nolan is the man who directed the Batman blockbuster “The Dark Knight,” which opened over the same weekend two years ago with a record $158.4 million.

Warner Bros. has carved out a niche with this particular mid-July weekend. The studio followed “The Dark Knight” with a $77.8 million opening for “Harry Potter and the HalfBlood Prince” over the same weekend last year.

“We like this spot. Not to sound superstitious, but stay away from this weekend. I own it,” said Dan Fellman, head of distribution for Warner Bros.

Narcotics evidence analysis slowed by budget cuts THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LOS ANGELES Overtime reductions as a result of budget cuts have significantly slowed the analysis of narcotics evidence by the Los Angeles County Sheriff ’s Department, according the sheriff.

“The department continues to experience operational impacts, especially within critical support and investigative units,” Sheriff Lee Baca wrote in a report to the LA County Board of Supervisors.

Baca said trained analysts used to handle the heavy load of narcotics cases by working overtime.

Last year the average backlog, before the cuts, was 256 cases, The Los Angeles Times reported Sunday. That number has more than tripled, sheriff ’s officials said, growing to 920 unanalyzed cases.

IT’D BE NICE IF IT WAS QUICKER. WE’D BE ABLE TO ANSWER THE COURTS’ QUESTIONS FASTER.” Alex Perenishko Monrovia police Detective

Baca recently cut overtime expenses in an effort to compensate for a $128 million budget cut.

Last month the Times reported the sheriff ’s department is collecting fewer fingerprints because of budget cuts, leading to delays in scores of criminal investigations. There was a backlog of more than 100 prints waiting to be analyzed and compared against a statewide database.

Other law enforcement agencies in LA

County that outsource their narcotics analysis to the sheriff ’s department say they’ve been affected by the backlog.

A detective with the Monrovia Police Department said results used to come back in a week or two but now take, on average, up to a month. The agency submits evidence such as pills or suspected cocaine to determine its contents.

“It’d be nice if it was quicker,” said Monrovia police Detective Alex Perenishko.“We’d be able to answer the courts’ questions faster.

Tax increase a bad idea

Send comments to editor@smdp.com

EDITOR IN CHIEF Kevin Herrera

Editor:

Did the City Council use precious and supposedly inadequate tax dollars to hire the same consultants who made the misguided advice for the school district to seek a parcel tax or did the school unions pay off the council? Have these geniuses ever considered that by increasing the sales tax, they might generate a significantly lower amount of sales tax revenue?

We would only need taxable sales to decrease by less than 5 percent for this tax increase to produce the same income as under the current 9.75 percent rate. It isn’t too difficult to see sales taxes decreasing by significantly more. I’m sure many Santa Monica residents would choose to make more than 5 percent of their purchases out of the city. It isn’t like going to L.A. is very far.

It is one thing to consider driving to Ventura County for a lower sales tax, but quite a different than going to West L.A. And that is just for residents. How about visitors? Are they going to go to the new Santa Monica Bloomingdale’s or Nordstrom’s to make their major purchase or buy them at their local stores? This is just a bad idea. Why punish local businesses, their employees and the people who support them?

People are against increased taxes period. City Hall needs to make better use of the resources it has and that goes for the school district, too. The most recent sign I’ve seen is now “Save our Teachers.” This has nothing to do with the quality of education, but everything to do with union benefits and unsustainable pensions. Also why in the world should we subsidize Malibu residents? We have more than sufficient resources in this city and already pay way too much in property, sales and income tax. Enough. City Council, stop wasting time and money on this and find some ways to make better use with the generous taxes you already receive.

Frank Greenberg Santa Monica

Going with an expert Editor:

After reading the back and forth in your paper about the city’s land use plan over the past few weeks, I will take the opinion and experience of a land use expert and practitioner like Chris Harding over your always crabby columnist and his red tennis shoes any day of the week.

Karen Solomon-Perkins Santa Monica

Death and sales taxes “In this world, nothing is certain but death and taxes.”

Benjamin Franklin LAST TUESDAY, THE CITY COUNCIL

approved a ballot measure that will permanently add another half percent to the current 9.75 percent sales tax on taxable items purchased, delivered or registered in Santa Monica — if “OK’d” by more than 50 percent of voters in November. A companion, non-binding advisory ballot measure will ask voters whether the revenues generated should be shared with the Santa MonicaMalibu Unified School District.

School supporters have wholeheartedly endorsed the new tax measure because they visualize splitting up to half the additional net $12 million in annual revenue. City Hall’s financial staff estimates the half-cent increase could also result in a 10 percent reduction in the city’s taxable sales or a $268 million loss. Restaurants, consumer goods and drug categories will be hardest hit. Jobs will be lost and businesses will close.

City Hall paid the district $7.644 million last year in a Facility Use Agreement, a net $1.5 million for programs and services at district school sites and another $27 million for school and community-based youth programs, according to a Feb. 6, 2010 council information item.

Suggestions that City Hall is in dire need of money and may have to slash essential services including police and fire are nonsense because residents won’t tolerate it.

This has all the earmarks of a back-room deal worked out by Santa Monicans for Renters’ Rights leaders, school and City Hall honchos to float another tax measure that would add more money to city coffers and generate $6 million annually for the school district — coincidentally, nearly the same amount as the district’s failed parcel tax measure would have raised Nimish Patel, a member of the school district’s financial oversight committee and a likely school board candidate, commented in a letter to this newspaper (Letters to the editor, July 13, page 4) and again before City Council, that “25 percent of the tax will be paid by nonresidents and tourists.” As if residents paying three-quarters is a good deal.

He postulated that the more than $13 million the half-cent levy will annually raise will “be used to minimize cuts to critical city services and to fund our public schools.”

Patel mentioned City Hall’s polling showed a vast majority of the community support this tax. I was interviewed and never

experienced a more leading poll. It was strictly designed to “hard sell’ a tax increase not to gather honest data.

Controlling spending is obviously something that school administrators, school cheerleaders and city politicians want to avoid at all costs. They’d rather continually raises taxes. And, because the city if Malibu is not increasing its sales tax, we’ll also wind up subsidizing Malibu schools even more.

However, Patel is correct in advocating for independent revenue streams including naming rights for school facilities (Can you imagine Yahoo Barnum Hall or Samo-Fox Marching Band?).

During Tuesday’s council meeting, Mayor Bobby Shriver said, “The city is rich -- in the worst economy in the history of everybody in this room” and said that concerns “the city is in some sort of financial extremis is just not borne out by fact” — a statement school cheerleaders and Councilwoman Gleam Davis disagreed with even through Shriver is “dead on the money,” so to speak.

In response, Davis lamented a “selfimposed” 1.5 percent budget reduction by social service providers including meals for seniors. She continued, “With the sales and use tax there is an element of discretion and if it proves to be a burden to someone, they can reduce their consumption.” In other words, go without? Or, shop out of town?

“A parcel tax is not a consumption tax.

Unless you live in your house and own your property, the only way to get out from under the parcel tax is to sell your house and move out of Santa Monica,” she intoned. Oh, my.

Let them eat cake?

Attorney Neil Carrey, who heads the school tax and bond feasibility committee, told council the sales tax proposal “would make more sense” and be “easier to pass than a parcel tax” referring to the two-thirds vote required to approve a parcel tax measure wherein a sales tax increase only requires majority approval. Note: “Easier to pass!”

However, there’s nothing in either ballot measure that guarantees one thin dime will go to the schools. Although this present council will probably share the wealth, future City Councils could turn off the tap at any time for any reason.

This sales tax proposal is another in a long series of regressive taxes promulgated by the municipal “plutocracy." There is no compelling need to increase taxes and give even more money to City Hall and a school district that believes taxing residents out of their homes and jobs is the only option.

BP, feds differ on Gulf oil well cap COLLEEN LONG HARRY R. WEBER Associated Press Writers

NEW ORLEANS BP and the Obama administration offered significantly differing views Sunday on whether the capped Gulf of Mexico oil well will have to be reopened, a contradiction that may be an effort by the oil giant to avoid blame if crude starts spewing again.

Pilloried for nearly three months as it tried repeatedly to stop the leak, BP PLC capped the nearly mile-deep well Thursday and wants to keep it that way. The government’s plan, however, is to eventually pipe oil to the surface, which would ease pressure on the fragile well but would require up to three more days of oil spilling into the Gulf.

“No one associated with this whole activity ... wants to see any more oil flow into the Gulf of Mexico,” Doug Suttles, BP’s chief operating officer, said Sunday. “Right now we don’t have a target to return the well to flow.”

An administration official familiar with the spill oversight, however, told The Associated Press that a seep and possible methane were found near the busted oil well.

The official spoke on condition of anonymity Sunday because an announcement about the next steps had not been made yet.

The concern all along — since pressure readings on the cap weren’t as high as expected — was a leak elsewhere in the wellbore, meaning the cap may have to be reopened to prevent the environmental disaster from becoming even worse and harder to fix.

The official, who would not clarify what is seeping near the well, also said BP is not complying with the government’s demand for more monitoring.

When asked about the official’s comments, BP spokesman Mark Salt would only say that “we continue to work very closely with all government scientists on this.”

Retired Coast Guard Adm. Thad Allen, the Obama administration’s spill response chief, insisted Sunday that “nothing has changed” since Saturday, when he said oil would eventually be piped to surface ships.

The government is overseeing BP’s work to stop the leak, which ultimately is to be plugged using a relief well.

Allen decided to extend testing of the cap that had been scheduled to end Sunday, the official who spoke on condition of anonymity said. That means the oil will stay in the well for now as scientists continue run tests and monitor pressure readings. The official didn’t say how long that would take.

Officials at the Department of Homeland Security referred questions to a statement issued

by Allen; neither he nor BP officials could explain the apparent contradiction in plans.

Suttles’ comments carved out an important piece of turf for BP: If Allen sticks with the containment plan and oil again pours forth into the Gulf, even briefly, it will be the

The future of Expo Santa Monica city officials recently have been debating what shape stations for the Expo Light Rail line should take. Some feel they shouldn’t be grand statements, while others feel that the stations should closely reflect the city’s unique vibe.

government’s doing, not BP’s.

The company very much wants to avoid a repeat of the live underwater video that showed millions of gallons of oil spewing from the blown well for weeks.

“I can see why they’re pushing for keeping the cap on and shut in until the relief well is in place,” said Daniel Keeney, president of a Dallas-based public relations firm.

The government wants to eliminate any chance of making matters worse, while BP is loath to lose the momentum it gained the moment it finally halted the leak, Keeney said.

“They want to project being on the same team, but they have different end results that benefit each,” he said.

Oil would have to be released under Allen’s plan, which would ease concerns that the capped reservoir might force its way out through another route. Those concerns stem from pressure readings in the cap that have been lower than expected.

Scientists still aren’t sure whether the pressure readings mean a leak elsewhere in the well bore, possibly deep down in bedrock, which could make the seabed unstable. Oil would be have to be released into the water to relieve pressure and allow crews to hook up the ships, BP and Allen have said.

So far, there have been no signs of a leak.

“We’re not seeing any problems at this point with the shut-in,” Suttles said at a Sunday morning briefing.

Allen said later Sunday that scientists and engineers would continue to evaluate and monitor the cap through acoustic, sonar and seismic readings.

They’re looking to determine whether low pressure readings mean that more oil than expected poured into the Gulf of Mexico since the BP-leased Deepwater Horizon rig exploded April 20, killing 11 people and touching off one of America’s worst environment crises.

"While we are pleased that no oil is currently being released into the Gulf of Mexico and want to take all appropriate action to keep it that way, it is important that all decisions are driven by the science,” Allen said in a news release.

“Ultimately, we must ensure no irreversible damage is done which could cause uncontrolled leakage from numerous points on the sea floor.”

Both Allen and BP have said they don’t know how long the trial run will continue. It was set to end Sunday afternoon, but the deadline — an extension from the original Saturday cutoff — came and went with no word on what’s next.

After little activity Sunday, robots near the well cap came to life around the time of the cutoff. It wasn’t clear what they were doing, but bubbles started swirling around as their robotic arms poked at the mechanical cap.

Giving wind a boost Dear EarthTalk I heard that some wind farms use fossil fuels to power their generators when the wind won’t. Doesn’t that defeat their whole renewable energy purpose? Why not let the wind power it or not? Also, I’ve heard that the low-frequency sounds generated by these turbines can harm people and animals. Is this true?

to wind power is the fact that, even in windy locations, the wind doesn’t always blow. So the ability of turbines to generate power is intermittent at best. Many turbines can generate power only about 30 percent of the time, thanks to the inconsistency of their feedstock.

In order to overcome this Achilles’ heel of intermittent production, some wind companies have developed back-up systems that can spin turbines even when the wind isn’t blowing, thus optimizing and keeping consistent the power output. For example, Colorado-based Hybrid Turbines Inc. is selling wind farms systems that marry a natural gas-based generator to a wind turbine. “Even if natural gas is used, the electricity produced…is twice as environmentally clean as burning coal,” reports the company. Better yet, if a user can power them with plantderived biofuels, they can remain 100 percent renewable energy-based.

While some wind energy companies may want to invest in such technologies to wring the most production out of their big investments, utilities aren’t likely to suffer much from the intermittent output if they don’t.

Even the utilities that are most bullish on wind power still generate most of their electricity from other more traditional sources at the present time. So, when wind energy output decreases, utilities simply draw more power from other sources — such as solar arrays, hydroelectric dams, nuclear reactors and coal-fired power plants — to maintain consistent electrical service. As such, reports the American Wind Energy Association, utilities act as “system operators” drawing power from where it’s available and dispatching it to where it is needed in tune with rising and falling power needs.

But just because generating wind power all day long isn’t imperative doesn’t mean that suppliers aren’t doing all they can to maximize output. To wit, turbine manufacturers are beginning to incorporate so-called Active Flow Control (AFC) technology, which delays the occurrence of partial or

EXTRA POWER: Some wind energy companies have developed back-up systems that can spin turbines even when the wind isn’t blowing, thus optimizing and keeping consistent the power output. Colorado-based Hybrid Turbines Inc., for example, makes systems that marry a natural gas-based generator to a wind turbine.

Even with that fossil fuel usage, the electricity produced is much cleaner than burning coal.

complete stalls when the wind dies down, and also enables start-up and power generation at lower wind speeds than conventional turbines. The non-profit Union of Concerned Scientists lauds AFC for these capabilities, which in turn can help system operators create a more reliable electric grid less dependent on fossil fuels.

As to whether or not noise from wind farms can harm people and wildlife, the jury is still out. New York-based pediatrician Nina Pierpont argues in her book, Wind Turbine Syndrome, that turbines may produce sounds that can affect the mood of people nearby or cause physiological problems like insomnia, vertigo, headaches and nausea. On the flip side, Renewable UK, a British wind energy trade group, says that the noise measured 1,000 feet away from a wind farm is less than that of normal road traffic. Here in the U.S., a Texas jury denied a 2006 noise pollution suit against FPL Energy after FPL showed that noise readings from its wind farm maxed out at 44 decibels, roughly the same generated by a 10 mileper-hour wind.

GREEN FROM PAGE 1 everyday Americans, no matter where you live, can make a difference and motivate themselves and other people and inspire by making small changes to save money and make money and find new, sustainable careers,” she said.

The site, which has gotten more than 30,000 hits, currently has approximately 50 stories from 15 cities across the country.

Neisloss said she hopes to get at least one story from every state by next summer.

Neisloss acknowledged that the Internet is saturated with websites on sustainability, but said her site adds a personalized side to the issue and does so with high-definition videos.

Neisloss, a 20-year Santa Monica resident, said the city’s already green attitude is conducive to her business.

“It has certainly provided added inspiration for me, trying to walk the talk in a place that’s one of the country’s leading sustainable communities,” she said.

Though Neisloss said she would like the site to expand into a social movement, Hannah Hartnell, the owner of Hartnell Studio dress shop at Fourth Street who was featured in a video on the site for using ecofriendly fabrics, said she is unsure of the impact the videos will have. Though she agreed to do the video to show how easy it is to be green, Hartnell said she was never quite clear on its purpose and has not yet heard of anyone seeing it and being impacted.

“Maybe they should be promoting this to schools or community centers in northern Idaho, where they don’t know about green practices,” Hartnell said.

Neisloss also actively teaches people how to live more environmentally-friendly lifestyles with the site’s “How Green are the Greens?” series, where Neisloss chooses someone with the last name Green out of a

Some things just don’t change

“I’m a realistic environmentalist,” he said.

“I do things that help the environment in a way that doesn’t take much effort of going out of my way, like riding my bike at times every other week, picking up more trash than just my trash at the beach, separating my recyclables.”

While Green said he does have a greater awareness of how he can be green, his lifestyle has not changed much after the video.

“They went over things like making sure the fridge is sealed, make sure there’s no leaks,” he said. “It’s not at the front of my mind, but it crosses my mind more often now.”

CP FROM PAGE 1 rooted in her lifelong love of the beach. Her father is a lifeguard, so as a child she spent much time at the beach in Santa Monica.

But as time passed, she noticed more and more trash littering the beach.

In her 11th grade biology class at Santa Monica High School, she learned exactly how much plastic is polluting the ocean — marine debris, 90 percent of which is plastic, kills more than one million marine animals every year, according to Team Marine’s website. So Kilroy decided to join Team Marine, an organization at Samohi that aims to spread awareness about global marine debris such as single-use plastic bags. This past year, Kilroy served as the team captain for Team Marine.

As a member and captain of Team Marine, Kilroy has worked to rally Santa Monica to ban single-use plastic bags. One of the moments on Team Marine that has stood out for her and her friends was when she helped build a solar-powered boat for the 2009 Solar Cup, an annual competition where high school students build and race solar-powered crafts.

“It was difficult at first because we were all on the same page of not knowing what to do,” said Valerie Wacker, one of Kilroy’s friends and teammates.

Outside of environmental work, she considers herself a huge movie and television buff and has taken up an interest in photography. Her television and movie interest is being fed this summer with an internship at Fox Broadcasting, where she has the opportunity to read and comment on scripts.

Her environmental activism, specifically that with Team Marine, has earned her a couple of awards. In December, Kilroy won the TeenNick HALO award, where she was surprised with a $10,000 college scholarship and a $10,000 donation for Team Marine presented by singer Nick Cannon and actress Hayden Panettiere.

Most recently, Kilroy won the Diller Teen Tikkun Olam award in June. The $36,000 award is given to five California teenagers who embody Bay Area philanthropist Helen Diller’s vision of “Tikkun Olam,” Hebrew for repairing the world through passion, perseverance and dedication. Kilroy said she will use the money partially to help pay for college and partially to support Team Marine.

Though Kilroy is one of five award winners, Phyllis Cook, a philanthropic consultant with the Helen Diller Family Foundation who helped read the award applications, said Kilroy stands out from the rest of winners.

“Some of the projects applicants do don’t have a direct impact, but Megan’s have a tremendous impact,” Cook said. “There’s one thing she did — she called it ‘First Flush’ — where after the first rain of the season, she and her friends went down to the ocean and documented all the debris and tried to clean it up. Identifying a problem and finding a way to solve it are two different skill sets.”

Additionally, one of the purposes of the award is to spotlight teens who make a difference to encourage other teens to do the same, but Kilroy has already demonstrated

We have you covered the ability to rouse others into action, Cook said.

Wacker said she agrees Kilroy has an uncanny ability to inspire others. While Wacker was interested in helping the environment before she met Kilroy, Wacker said her involvement and interest have grown exponentially since meeting Kilroy.

Kilroy’s teacher and Team Marine coach, Benjamin Kay, echoed those sentiments, adding that Kilroy also has an exceptionally high retention rate and ability to analyze facts compared to a typical high school student.

“One time toward the end of the school year, we took a field trip to the Aquarium of the Pacific. At the end I gave a little quiz, and Megan got the most right. She answered 43 questions right on taxonomy,” Kay said.

Like everyone, though, Kilroy is not without her flaws. She counts her biggest flaw as being too hard on herself, a trait which Wacker said she too notices.

SHE CARES ABOUT ALL LIFE, ESPECIALLY THOSE IN THE OCEAN.” Benjamin Kay Team Marine coach

When Team Marine was participating in the 2009-2010 QuikSCience Challenge, an annual competition hosted by the University of Southern California where teams create presentations on ocean science, the team assembled a 40-page binder they dubbed Poseidon that held lesson plans, research and other elements of the project, which focused on marine debris and effects of global warming. About 10 minutes before the team had to leave to present the project, Kilroy noticed some pages were out of order, and she became “panicky,” Wacker recalled.

“We had to calm her down and tell her, ‘We just have to look through it,’” Wacker said.

But Kay said Kilroy’s desire to get everything perfect is more a benefit than a flaw as it shows how much she cares.

“We’re all our own worst critic,” he said.

“She does like to get things right and please people. She cares about what people think because she’s sensitive, which is one of the biggest aspects you can have. She cares about all life, especially those in the ocean.”

In the fall, Kilroy will be attending Pitzer College. She plans to create her own major combining environmental studies and media studies, a plan fueled by her dream to one day own a production company that makes films to educate people how to be more environmentally friendly.

“Team Marine has really been able to spread its message through the media, so I want to be able to provide that to other kids, as well,” she said. “How one person or a group of people can make a difference, is what I truly believe in.” news@smdp.com

Indulge in a favorite hobby, Cancer ARIES (March 21-April 19)

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

★★★★ Deal with associates directly. You'll gain much more information, and others will reveal what they need in order to forge ahead. Your creativity soars, though you might not be up for the risk you conjure up. Tonight: Make sure you and another person are on the same page.

★★★ Curb a need to possess someone or to be better than another person. Honor who you are.

That is quite special in itself. Build your security rather than be dependent on others for your self-image. Tonight: Treat yourself to a new item for your wardrobe, or go for a gym membership.

TAURUS (April 20- May 21)

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

★★★★★ Defer to others rather than get into a potential power play. A soft, understanding manner draws a child or loved one out.

Communication with roommates and family members could become confusing. Tonight: Accept an invitation.

★★★★★ A friend comes through for you in a rather special way. Everyone could use a supporter, and this person lets you know how much he or she is there for you. Confusion surrounds a boss or older person. Confirm a get-together before heading out. Tonight: What would make you happy?

GEMINI (May 22-June 20)

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

★★★ Throw yourself into a project, whether working at home or in the office. Gain comes through your home and family. You might add to your home in some manner. You might opt for a puppy, or maybe a new plant. Don't make any excuses for not going to the gym. Tonight: Head home.

★★★ Having an exit strategy from a situation could be most useful right now. Others could drag you down, even when just talking. Screen your calls.

A boss or someone you look up to might come to the rescue. Tonight: Float with changing plans.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) CANCER (June 21-July 22) ★★★★★ You have answers where others might not. Allow greater give-and-take in a conversation. Make it OK to be vulnerable and more open about your feelings. Maintain a strict budget; you could hit a snafu. Tonight: Indulge in a favorite hobby or pastime.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) ★★★ Stay close to home if possible. If you can work from home, do. Stop at some point and buy a card or gift for a friend or loved one.

Don't stand on ceremony with a misunderstanding. Tonight: Close to home.

★★★★★ Meetings prove to be instrumental.

Someone has a totally different perspective on an issue than you do. A brainstorming session evolves.

You could be delighted by everything that comes up.

Confirm a late-day meeting. Tonight: Where people are.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ★★★★ You seem to be the one who everyone seeks out. Others need your feedback and understanding. A key associate, friend or loved one shares his or her perspective, but also gives you his or her support no matter what. Tonight: Let another person express his or her stress openly.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ★★★★★ You don't need to be anyone but the real you, and express your thoughts and feelings.

Others, especially during the workday, prove to be unusually responsive. Be sensitive and open to a sibling or neighbor who needs to speak to you. Tonight: Confirm plans before heading out.

★★★★★ Reach out for more information, especially if what you are hearing doesn't quite fit. An alternate perspective also could be helpful. Many people in your daily life express their support. A caring gesture makes you smile.

Tonight: Opt for something different. Someone could cancel at the last minute.

Happy birthday This year, solutions and great ideas seem to bubble forth naturally and weave together. You are a source of ideas for many. As a result,

■ "Reeking" Is His Business Model: Homeless New Jersey man Richard Kreimer said in February (2006) that he had settled, on undisclosed terms, part of his most recent lawsuit, against a transit company and two drivers, for having denied him rides because of his foul odor. Kreimer's history includes a $150,000 settlement with the public library in Morris County, which had tried to keep him out because of his odor, and, by his count, $80,000 in additional lawsuit-related income (though some went for legal expenses). Kreimer filed another foul-odor lawsuit in February against a transit company and a train station in Summit.

■ "Why are you still alive?" is the question doctors ask Ozzy Osbourne, the hard-rock singer and reality-TV star, who says he is now clean and sober after a lifetime of almost unimaginably bad habits. In June, he started two new ventures: undergoing the three-month process of genetic mapping (to help doctors learn why, indeed) and becoming a "health advice" columnist for London's Sunday Times. At various points in his life, the now-cholesterolconscious, vegetarian Osbourne said he drank four bottles of cognac a day, smoked cigars like they were cigarettes, took 42 prescribed medications and many more "backstage" drugs that he could not even identify.

Osbourne also has a Parkinson's-like genetic tremor, was once in a medically induced coma after an accident, and endured anti-rabies shots after famously biting into a bat on stage ("I thought it was a rubber toy").
