C8 Science Panel links C8 to testicular, kidney cancer
Callie Lyons

Special to the Gallipolis Daily Tribune

OHIO VALLEY — An independent panel of three epidemiologists have concluded that exposure
to the manufacturing substance
known as C8 or PFOA is linked to
two types of cancer in Mid Ohio
Valley residents.
The C8 Science Panel released
their new findings on Monday
morning. It‘s the latest development in the class action lawsuit
brought by local residents against
DuPont over the presence of the
manufacturing chemical PFOA,

or perfluorooctanoic acid, in their
drinking water. As a result of the
findings, a medical panel has been
established to determine what
type of medical monitoring is appropriate for class members.
The class action lawsuit involved residents who lived in areas
served by six public water supplies including Belpre, Pomeroy,
Tuppers Plains, Little Hocking,
Mason County, Ohio and Lubeck,
West Virginia. However, since that
time, C8 has reportedly been found
along every mile of the Ohio River.
What began as the C8 Health
Project has become the largest

study ever undertaken to determine the link between PFOA exposure and cancer. An analysis of 21
types of cancer yielded two probable link findings.
The Science Panel, Dr. Kyle
Steenland, Dr. Tony Fletcher, and
Dr. David Savitz, mapped the areas
of analysis to reveal a trend across
exposure groups. Fletcher said the
groups with the highest exposure
exhibited the highest risk of testicular and kidney cancer.
“The trend of increase is quite
strong,” explained Steenland, who
described the trend as “unlikely
due to chance or bias”.

A similar trend was observed
with prostate cancer, but fewer
cases of the disease were involved
in the study.
Fletcher said the newly released
information is supported by earlier
findings of studies performed on
workers and effects observed in lab
animals.
Through the review of medical
records and the state cancer registry, the panel validated 2,420 diagnoses of primary cancer. Based
on past emissions from DuPont
and the residential history of study
subjects, the panel estimated the
levels of C8 in the blood of study

subjects over time. They found a
“reasonably consistent and strong
relationship” between past exposure and testicular and kidney
cancer — both considered rare diseases. Science panel data included
19 confirmed cases of testicular
cancer and 113 confirmed cases of
kidney cancer.
Steenland warned that there are
“limitations that should be recognized”. For instance, participants
displayed only a few cases of certain cancers like pancreatic and liver cancers, so there may have been
inadequate data for a probable link

POMEROY — While
the new ATM at the Motor Bank of Peoples Bank
in Pomeroy prepares to
open before the end of the
month, an announcement
of construction of a standalone ATM facility in a
section of the Middleport
Bank, closed on March 31

Pomeroy bank, has been
made.
According to Tina Rees,
local Peoples Bank manager, the construction
will go on inside the bank
building to create a place
separating it from the former lobby area. The ATM
equipment will be placed
underneath a canopy. This
means that the ATM will
be connected to the building but separated from the
former lobby area which
means it will not interfere
with any business which

been delayed. It was origi-

nally scheduled to open on

Ask Dr. Brothers

First job makes her nervous
Dear Dr. Brothers: I went
to a community college and
a technical college, and I feel
pretty well prepared to take
my place at my first job in the
hospitality industry. The problem is that I’ve never been in a
business environment before,
and I know there are lots of pitfalls. I don’t really know how to
operate so I can get ahead at
work and not make enemies. Is
it better to be nice to everyone,
or just to people who can help
my career? I’ve worked hard to
get here, and I am nervous. Advice? — N.K.
Dear N.K.: Your first job
can be a minefield if you approach it without any thought
to your environment, your colleagues and superiors, or what
career path you want to carve
out for yourself. Since you already are feeling a bit nervous
about all those things, you
probably won’t just be going
on your merry way and wondering what happened when
the train derails. That’s a good
thing. But there is a downside
to being too nervous about
your new job: Your fear of making a misstep may make you so
timid and cautious that your
ability and creativity are compromised from the get-go and
you run the risk of stagnating
because of it. So there must be
a happy medium you can aim
for in looking at your work
days strategically.
There are some general
rules you can follow. Start with
these, and try not to sweat the
small stuff. Go in with the attitude that you’re going to do
well and are equipped to suc-

ceed. Let others know about
your expertise, but develop the
ability to listen and be flexible.
Be friendly and respectful to
everyone, regardless of their
status, and realize that good
business relationships involve
setting boundaries with coworkers. Don’t let conflicts
grow into problems, but try to
address them directly. Respect
cultural differences, and don’t
gossip. And try to relax!
***
Dear Dr. Brothers: I met
a woman in a busy line at the
grocery store who was buying
up all sorts of canned goods.
I started talking to her about
couponing, but she said she’s
not a coupon nut; she is a socalled prepper. I’d never heard
that before, and before I had
a chance to ask her about it, I
had to check out. I have heard
of survivalists, and I wondered
if preppers are the same thing.

Just curious! — H.P.
Dear H.P.: There are many
people who are focusing on
hard times ahead. It isn’t just
the poor economy or the threat
of terrorism that has more and
more folks concerned; there
are those who are concerned
about natural disasters, global
warming and various biblical and other predictions of
the end of the world or the
so-called rapture. All this fear
and concern have motivated
many individuals to prepare
as best they can so that they
don’t feel entirely helpless facing what they are convinced
will be a coming disaster for
themselves and their families.
Out of this mind-set have come
both survivalists and preppers,
and while they have similar
psychological and practical
characteristics based on their
eagerness to be ready for the
worst, there are some differences.
Survivalists are people who
have made it their business to
learn to survive by living off
the land, on the move. They
practice getting along with few
resources, and learn to provide
for themselves when it comes
to food, shelter and other necessities of life. Preppers, like
the woman in the grocery
store, are more oriented toward stocking up on necessities that they can stockpile in
case they need to weather a
period of time in which such
things are unavailable, and at
the same time becoming more
self-sufficient.

A national calamity Budgets are moral documents
or a caring economy – funding a people’s priorities
Failure to invest in young children
threatens our country’s future

By Riane Eisler
We’re being told that fiscal responsibility requires
big cuts in education, nutrition, and health care for
millions of children. This
shortsighted and uncaring thinking is not only
a nightmare for those directly affected; it is an imminent threat to America’s
economic future.
We have to let our policy makers know that fiscal responsibility requires
caring economic policies.
Here’s why.
Experts agree that a nation’s most important asset is what economists call
“high quality human capital” – flexible, creative,
educated people who can
adapt to our globalized
knowledge-service economy. Brain science shows
that the years from 0 to
5 are critical for healthy
brain development. An
overwhelming body of research shows that to ensure that we have this high
quality human capital we
must invest more in care
and education for our children. Indeed, studies have
long shown that this is the
most cost-effective investment a nation can make.
Other developed nations
are investing heavily in
early childhood education
because it is an investment in their economic
success. But our nation
has gone in the opposite
direction – despite all the
evidence that not making
this investment will lead
to an economic calamity.
A substantial body of
research shows that highquality pre-K education
prepares children to succeed in school and enroll
in college or career training. It further shows that
this not only prevents the
enormous financial costs
of remedial work, delinquency, crime, and other

problems, but also leads
to better jobs, higher incomes, and greater contributions to our tax base
and our economy.
Yet the State of Preschool 2011 study found
that rather than increasing
our national investment in
these essential programs,
real spending on state preK education declined by
about 15 percent in the
past 10 years. This means
that spending per child nationally is $715 lower than
even the 2001-2002 level.
“A decline of this magnitude should serve as a
wake-up call for parents
and policy leaders about
how well we are preparing today’s preschoolers
to succeed in school and
later find good jobs in a
competitive market,” said
Steve Barnett, director of
the nonpartisan National
Institute for Early Education Research (NIEER)
at Rutgers University,
warned.
We must see to it that
our policy makers heed
this warning. They need
to know about this report.
They need to know about
the proven success of hundreds of small programs
across the country, such as
the early childhood education pilot programs supported by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation.
They also need to know
about the need for new
economic measures that
are more accurate and
inclusive than the much
touted GDP or Gross Domestic Product: measures
such as the Social Wealth
indicators now being developed. When GDP keeps
rising at the same time
that joblessness is dangerously high and childcare
and educational budgets
are slashed, it is clear that
we urgently need better
measurements that give
policy makers and the

public a more accurate picture of the true economic
health of the country and
our citizens, of what really
counts for long-term national economic competitiveness.
Social Wealth indicators show the enormous
economic value of care
and education for children. They identify lowcost, high-value investments for developing our
people’s capacities – our
human capital — so that
our country can achieve a
healthy economy, a better
quality of life, and a strong
democracy through caring
business and government
policies and practices
across the board.
The federal $500 million Race to the Top-Early
Learning Challenge that is
providing grants to nine
states for improving quality is a step in the right
direction. But we urgently
need more — and it is up
to us to demand that local,
state, and federal governments invest in our most
precious national asset:
our children.
There’s an old saying
that a stitch in time saves
nine. This is a time-tested
wisdom. Our policy makers must adopt it in light
of the enormous costs of
not investing in care and
education for our nation’s
future workforce. The
proven benefits of this and
other truly fiscally responsible investments are overwhelming.

By Robert Dodge

This week the nation
funds our priorities as we
pay our annual tax bill.
“Our budget is a moral
document and it is either
going to reflect the best of
who we are or the worst”.
This was so eloquently
stated by the Rev. Jim
Wallis of Sojourners. Tax
expenditures thus speak
to who we are as a people.
They define the sacrifices
and choices we are willing
to make as we look to the
future for our nation and
citizens young and old
alike. Each expenditure is
by necessity a critical affirmation of meeting the
nation’s needs.
With a continued waning economy, each dollar
becomes even more significant. So many issues
remain under funded or
non-funded and therefore
the decisions we make are
even more critical. From
education,
healthcare,
infrastructure to environmental stewardship we
are forced to choose and
prioritize our needs. Yet
there remains a gorilla in
the room that not only
threatens our very survival, it steals from the lifeblood of every community
in our nation, depriving
them of precious resources and taking a toll in opportunity costs – the critical programs left wanting
when funding is not available. I am speaking of the
massive dollars spent on
behalf of nuclear weapons
programs. Once again this
number will exceed $54
billion for the current fiscal year according to Stephen Schwartz, author of
the Atomic Audit.
The weapons that these
expenditures
support
threaten our very existence every moment of
every day. Every citizen
and every community
feels the burden of these
costs. From our nation’s

Congress shall make no law
respecting an establishment of
religion, or prohibiting the free
exercise thereof; or abridging the
freedom of speech, or of the press;
or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition
the Government for a redress of
grievances.

poorest community—Buffalo County, South Dakota with its 1912 residents, 49.3 percent who
live in poverty spending
$138,172 of its limited
dollars—to Los Angeles
County spending over
$1.7 billion, the costs are
great and morally reprehensible.
Public education is but
one example of lost opportunity. On a daily basis school districts across
the land deal with ever
shrinking resources. As a
Californian I am terribly
concerned for our state’s
public financed education.
California ranks 48 in the
nation in per pupil spending. As an American, I
know the cuts in public
education across the land
will have an everlasting
effect on the future of our
nation and the world.
Is this really what we
want?
Today’s children are
tomorrow’s
scientists,
teachers,
professionals
and leaders. I ask, is this
our priority? What is the
ripple effect of such shortsightedness? We all will
suffer the consequences.
This does not have to be
the case. When will we
speak up? We have an opportunity and responsibility to realize the possibilities before us.
We now have bipartisan
elder statesmen who are
working to globally eliminate all nuclear weapons
stockpiles. We even have
U.S. Air Force researchers and RAND corporation nuclear planners who
suggest the U.S. could address its stated military
concerns with roughly 300
nuclear weapons. Current
global stockpiles contain
19,500 weapons with over
94 percent in the U.S. and
Russian arsenals. Nuclear
weapons programs are not
an entitlement program.
They have outlived their
Cold War purpose and

it is now time to work
to reduce and ultimately
eliminate these dangerous
weapons and wasteful expenditures.
The choice is ours. National and international
surveys have confirmed
that a majority of U.S. and
global citizens want to see
nuclear weapons eliminated. Their continued existence encourages further
spread of nuclear materials and weapons. Now is
the time to redefine our
priorities.
We the people have an
opportunity and responsibility to make a difference. It is time for all of
us to raise our collective
voice and demand that
the nuclear madness stop.
We can no longer gamble
on our future relying on
luck to protect us from
accidental or intentional
nuclear strike. Nor can
we afford to waste precious resources on any
program that does not
add value to our future let
alone that which threatens
our very existence. Every
elected official needs to
be questioned what they
are doing specifically to
work toward a nuclear
free world. You can contact your congressional
representative or senator
by going to www.contactingthecongress.org. Let
your voice be heard. For
when the people lead, the
leaders will follow.

Big crowd watches Buckeyes
work on passing game
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP)
— The look in Urban Meyer’s eyes said it all as several
hundred Ohio State students
rushed toward him to get
their picture taken, an autograph or to pass on a word of
encouragement.
He was pleased, but at the
same time maybe just a little
bit scared.
It was Meyer’s idea to open
up the Buckeyes’ practice on
Saturday to more than 3,000
fans who showed up with a
student ID. Originally scheduled for outside at massive
Ohio Stadium, heavy rains
chased everyone indoors to
the Woody Hayes football facility.
“When I first went to Florida I visited almost every student organization on campus.
This place is too darned big
and I’m getting a little older,
so I can’t do that. So we’re
reaching out to the students,”
the first-year coach said earlier this week of his time with
the Gators, when he won
two national championships.
“Sometimes we keep forgetting what this is all about is

about student-athletes and
it’s about the student body
and making the collegiate experience a positive thing. So,
what’s every student want?
They want ownership and access. We’re going to give it to
them.”
Ohio State plays its annual
spring intrasquad game next
Saturday at Ohio Stadium,
rain or shine.
Meyer posed and preened,
smiled for the camera and
put his arm around kids who
stumbled out of bed to get a
close-up look at the Buckeyes.
For 20 minutes or so, he was
mobbed by the crowd, barely
visible while the students
snapped photos with their
phones.
The students were permitted to sit on the field while the
Buckeyes scrimmaged. During placement kicks late in
practice, coach Meyer even let
the crowd surround the line of
scrimmage — almost like the
gallery on the final hole of the
British Open.
Kicker Drew Basil not
only had kids peering over
his shoulder as he lined up to

boot the ball, but his kick then
sailed over the heads of other
kids.
“It was awesome, just to see
that whole end zone packed
down there, all the way out to
the 20- or 25-yard line,”Basil
said. “That was just incredible. I’ve never seen this many
people in the Woody at once.
This is the best atmosphere
ever.”
Afterward, the fans milled
around and talked with the
players.
Wide receiver Evan Spencer, sidelined with a broken
bone in his shoulder, still got
to enjoy the scene.
“It was fun. It was really
fun. I’ve never been a part of
something like that before,”
he said. “This was really cool.”
The scrimmage featured
a big run by freshman back
Bri’onte Dunn, who reversed
field while rambling 70-some
yards to the delight of the
nearby crowd. Another fan favorite was quarterback Braxton Miller pump-faking and
then tossing a 45-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver
Devin Smith.

Votto has big hit in 11th, leads Reds over Nats
WASHINGTON (AP) — Joey
Votto ensured the weekend in
Washington wasn’t a total loss for
the Reds.
Votto hit a two-run double in
the 11th inning Sunday and the
Reds avoided a four-game sweep
with an 8-5 victory over the Nationals on Sunday.
The Reds, who had scored
just 10 runs in losing five of six,
scored their most runs in a game
this season.
Ryan Ludwick hit a grand slam
in the first and Cincinnati led 5-0
in the fourth. But Washington
scored three in the bottom of the
fourth and another run in the fifth
before tying it on Ian Desmond’s
RBI single in the seventh.
“You hate a sweep, especially a
four-game sweep, and they were
threatening to knock on the door,”
Reds manager Dusty Baker said.
“We got out of here with one.”
In the 11th, Drew Stubbs, who
had been 1 for 15 in the series,
singled off Tyler Clippard (1-1) to
open the inning. After Wilson Valdez tried unsuccessfully to bunt,
Zack Cozart singled — his third
of the game — and Votto, who
was walked intentionally his pre-

vious two at-bats, doubled to left
on a 2-0 count. Scott Rolen followed with an RBI single.
“Finally, they couldn’t walk
Joey. We had some runners on
base. That was big,” Baker said.
Votto was 1 for 4 in his previous
appearances against Clippard.
“Tyler’s a really difficult guy to
face. I don’t think I’ve had a very
good track record against him
and I don’t particularly like facing
him,” Votto said.
Jose Arrendondo (1-0), the
fourth Cincinnati pitcher, threw
a scoreless 10th. Sean Marshall
worked the 11th for his first save
of the season.
“Ludwick’s first home run as
a Red, Marshall’s first save as
a Red, and a lot of firsts today.
Hopefully we can have some seconds, thirds, fifteens, twenties
and on down the line,” Baker
said.
Washington, which had won
five straight, is 7-3.
“We’ve won every series. I
think that’s our main goal — especially at home,” Clippard said.
Manager Davey Johnson revealed that Clippard has had
shoulder discomfort, but said

he was fine to pitch on Sunday.
Clippard said there was nothing
wrong with him.
The Reds took a 4-0 lead in
the first. Cozart singled with
one out, and after Votto was
called out on strikes, Rolen
bounced a ball to shortstop.
Desmond’s throw to first pulled
Adam LaRoche off the bag, and
Desmond was charged with an
error, though television replays
appeared to show Rolen was out.
Jay Bruce walked and, on a 2-2
pitch, Ludwick launched a grand
slam to left-center off Ross Detwiler. Detwiler threw 38 pitches in the first.
In the Reds’ first nine games,
they were batting just .191, and
hadn’t scored more than two
runs in an inning.
Cincinnati scored its fifth run
in the fourth on Ryan Hanigan’s
RBI single.
Washington got its first hits
off Reds starter Mike Leake in
the fourth. Desmond and Danny Espinosa began the inning
with singles. Ryan Zimmerman
walked to load the bases, and
LaRoche hit a two-run single.
Bruce, in right field, bobbled

Park in Washington, D.C, Sunday. The Reds beat the Nationals, 8-5.

the ball, and the runners moved
up. Zimmerman scored on Mark
DeRosa’s infield out to make it
5-3.
With one out in the fifth,
pinch-hitter Roger Bernadina
walked and scored on Desmond’s
double and Cincinnati led 5-4.

The Nationals tied it in the
seventh when Rick Ankiel led
off with a double. With one out,
Baker lifted Leake for Logan Ondrusek, who allowed a two-out
RBI single to Desmond — his
third of the game.

Jordan Shipley on mend, but Biff le pulls away to give
Bengals still need receivers Roush another Texas win
CINCINNATI (AP) —
Jordan Shipley got together
with quarterback Andy Dalton last week in Texas and
ran a few pass routes, an
encouraging developing for
the Cincinnati Bengals offense.
Their slot receiver is recovering nicely from knee
surgery that wiped out most
of his 2011 season. He was
still limited as the Bengals
started their voluntary offseason workouts on Monday at Paul Brown Stadium,
but expected to be fully recovered by training camp.
“Some days I feel really good,” Shipley said.
“Some days I feel close. At
this point in the process,
it’s how you feel that day. I
want to go out and do everything, and they tell me you
have to wait, heal up. As of
today, I’m still in the rehab
process.”
Shipley’s uneventful recovery is an important offseason development for the
Bengals, whose next big
challenge is finding more receivers to complement him
and A.J. Green.
The Bengals went to the
playoffs as a wild card last
season with Dalton and
Green emerging as rookies.
One offseason priority is to
expand a group of receivers
that isn’t even big enough
to fill a depth chart. Jerome
Simpson is an unrestricted
free agent serving a jail
sentence — his locker was

empty on Monday except
for a wooden stool and a
dozen plastic shirt hangers.
The nameplate was gone.
Andre Caldwell signed
with Denver last month,
leaving Cincinnati without
two of its top three receivers from 2011. Simpson
was second on the team in
catches by a receiver with
50, while Caldwell was third
with 37.
The Bengals have extra draft picks next week,
including two in the first
round, which gives them a
chance to fill a lot of their
holes. They also could use
an offensive guard and a
cornerback.
Somehow,
they need a No. 2 receiver
to take the coverage away
from Green.
“I feel like we’ve got guys
here that last year were
pushing for playing time,”
Dalton said. “Obviously, if
we can get another weapon,
that would be great. I’m all
for it. But we’ll see what
happens. The draft’s crazy.
Everybody knows that.”
The Bengals used last
year’s draft as a turning
point. They took Green in
the first round and Dalton
in the second, giving themselves a pair of playmakers
who made the playoffs and
the Pro Bowl in their rookie
seasons. They didn’t have
enough to get a long-awaited breakthrough — the
franchise’s first playoff win
since 1990.

The Bengals lost to Houston 31-10 in the playoffs,
leaving them 0-3 in the
postseason during coach
Marvin Lewis’ nine years in
Cincinnati.
They’ve tweaked the offense slightly in the offseason. Cincinnati allowed
running back Cedric Benson to leave as a free agent,
replacing him with BenJarvus Green-Ellis. They also
allowed Caldwell and Simpson to become unrestricted
free agents. Caldwell is
gone. The Bengals haven’t
ruled out signing Simpson,
who is serving a 15-day
jail sentence in northern
Kentucky on a drug-related
charge. Simpson also faces a
four-game suspension from
the NFL for violating its
substance abuse policy.
Getting Shipley back will
be a big step. He quickly developed into a dependable
slot receiver as a rookie in
2010, catching 52 passes
and three touchdowns. He
tore the anterior cruciate
ligament in his left knee
during the second game last
season.
Shipley met with Dalton
— another Texan — for
light workouts a few days
last week to see how his
knee responded. He ran
pass patterns and didn’t
have a problem.
“It felt real good,” Shipley
said. “I went back-to-back
days, which was big for me.”

FORT WORTH, Texas
(AP) — Greg Biffle regained
the lead when he charged
under Jimmie Johnson with
30 laps left Saturday night,
then pulled away to end his
49-race winless streak while
giving owner Jack Roush another NASCAR Sprint Cup
victory in Texas.
“We knew it was a matter of time before we were
going to win one of these
things. We’ve been running
so good,” Biffle said. “Catching the 48 at the end, it was

him. It seemed like when we
got to him, it was too easy.”
Johnson led 156 of the
334 laps while going for
owner Rick Hendrick’s
200th career victory. But he
never recovered, even scraping hard into the wall trying
to catch up after Biffle drove
under him in Turn 3 and
completed the pass before
the start-finish line.

CONCEPTIS SUDOKU
by Dave Green

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Tuesday,
April 17, 2012:
You act and feel lucky this year. As
a result, you’ll attract all sorts of experiences — some of which you will like
more than others. You’ll also take more
risks. Your finances could be the first
area of your life to be affected by this
new expansiveness. If you are single,
you are the apple of many people’s
eyes. You can afford to take your time
getting to know someone. If you are
attached, you will indulge each other
more. In a sense, you are like a new
couple. TAURUS tends to make you
more fiscally aware.
The Stars Show the Kind of Day
You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive;
3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
HHHH Your intuition lets you know
that much is going on behind the
scenes. If you tune in, making the right
decision is easy. Others rejoice once
they understand where you are coming
from. Take a walk, center and reorient
your thinking. Tonight: Indulge a little
more than usual.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
HHHHH A meeting sets the stage
for you to find out more information. You
might want to get the opinions of key
friends and associates. When the day
is done, you’ll realize that others are
with you on the right side of the tracks.
Tonight: Express your happiness.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
HHH You often wonder about
someone you regularly deal with, and
now you will get answers. The decision
remains: How much do you want to
be involved with this person? Do you
need or want more responsibility? No
one says you must decide immediately.
Tonight: Deal with an older relative.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
HHHHH Some people are just
lucky. Whether you usually fit into this
category or not, you do today if you
detach and don’t get triggered. Taking
risks is emotional for you, yet you are
likely to be on the winning side. News
that comes in seems too good to be
true. Tonight: In the whirlwind of your
imagination.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
HHHH Someone wants to share
some uncomfortably intimate details
about a situation. Your attitude says
“no,” so don’t worry; this person probably will catch on and get a case of
lockjaw. Mobilize others’ energy toward
a key cause or commitment. Focus on
a project, but count on some healthy
distractions. Tonight: Respond to a
request.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
HHHH You might be taken aback
by someone’s behavior. Take the high
road; rather than judge, be understanding. Detach from triggering situations,
and you will be far more content. Your
ability to visualize emerges and allows
you to complete some details. Tonight:
Go along with a friend’s idea.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
HHH You plunge into whatever you
are doing, but be aware that this activity
is not a solo venture. Let a partner or
associate let you know exactly what is
going on with him or her. Incorporate
this person more frequently into your
activities. Tonight: You need some
relaxation. Choose a favorite activity
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
HHHHH You have your own way
of saying “yes” or “no.” Sometimes this
comes across through your willingness
to listen. You delight others when you
decide to toss your energy into their
activities. The quality of your relationships will get better as a result. Tonight:
Don’t try to tell anyone that you are networking as you party away.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
HHHH You might want to rethink a
situation in broader terms. Listen to a
friend or associate who is dealing with a
comparable situation. You might choose
to revise your stance. Schedule time
with a family member, whether at lunch
or later tonight. Tonight: Have a reflective chat.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
HHHH You might start a conversation, but ending it could be a little more
difficult. Apparently, you caught this person on a ranting day, where he or she
needs to talk and clear his or her chest.
Realize what is happening between you
and this person. Tonight: Return calls
and emails, then decide.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
HHHH How you handle your
finances will have implications on others. Even if you are alone, you will see
the impact of your actions. A lifestyle
change could make you smile. Be smart
in a negotiation. Tonight: Decide to
invite friends over.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
HHHH Your ability to say what
you mean while also lightening up the
moment is a tremendous asset. You
might note that someone is observing
and trying to replicate your style. Pitch
in, and help this person learn to be
more diplomatic. Tonight: Reach out for
a favorite person.
