FEATURES BIZ BY DAVE BLAZEK POP CULTURE SHOCK THERAPY BY DOUG BRATTON SPECTICKLES BY BILL ABBOTT SALOME’S STARS HOROSCOPE R.F.D. BY MIKE MARLAND ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Still operating under a full head of self-esteem makes you want to tackle a matter you had shied away from. OK. But be sure to arm yourself with facts before you make a move. AMBER WAVES BY DAVE T. PHIPPS TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) That smart move you recently made caught the attention of a lot of people, including some with finan- cial deals to offer. Use your Taurean wariness to check them out thoroughly. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Shyness might keep you from asking for more information on a potentially important matter. But your curiosity grows stronger by midweek and gives you the impetus for data-gathering. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Taking on too many tasks may not be the wise thing to do at this time. You might overspend both your physical and emotional energy reserves, and have to miss out on some upcoming events. THE SPATS BY JEFF PICKERING LEO (July 23 to August 22) Try to keep your spending at an affordable level. Splurging now -- especially on credit -- could create a prob- lem if your finances are too low for you to take advantage of a possible opportunity. A WING & A PRAYER BY BILL ABBOTT VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) You might not approve of a colleague’s behavior during much of the week. But don’t play the judgmental Virgo card here. As always, check the facts before you assume the worst. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Coping with an old issue that has suddenly re-emerged could take a big toll on your emo- tional energies. Decide whether you really want to pursue the possibilities here. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) For all your skill in keeping your secrets safe, you could be unwittingly letting one slip out by the way you’re behaving in that new relationship. Are congratulations soon to be in order? SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to De- cember 21) Good old-fashioned horse sense could help you get around those who unknowingly or deliberately put obstacles in your way. Ignore the confusion and follow your own lead. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) A puzzling attitude change in a colleague from friendly to chilly might stem from a long-hidden resentment suddenly bubbling up. An open and honest talk should resolve the problem. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) This week, many ever-generous Aquarians might find themselves feeling an acquisitive urge. If so, indulge it. You’ve earned the right to treat yourself to wonderful things. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Expect to get a lot of advice on how to go about implementing your plans. But once you’ve sorted it all out, you’ll probably find that, once again, your way will be the best way. BORN THIS WEEK: You enjoy the quiet times of your life, but when you’re in the mood, you can throw a party everyone will want to go to. FLASHBACK BY MICK HARPER 4. THE BIBLE -- CHAPTER 3 OF THE BOOK OF ECCLESIASTES. SUDOKU 1. Name the solo artist who had a solo hit with “Sunshine.” 2. “Bridge Over Troubled Water” is the signature song of which duo? 3. Which country artist released “He’ll Have to Go” in 1959? 4. Where did the lyrics come from for “Turn, Turn, Turn”? 5.

A RADIO STATION PROGRAM DIRECTOR SPLICED TOGETHER THE TWO SOLO VERSIONS AS A PRESENT FOR HIS WIFE, WHOM HE HAD JUST DIVORCED, AND PLAYED IT ON THE AIR. THE MEDIA RESPONSE WAS SUCH THAT THE RECORD COMPANY BROUGHT STREISAND AND DIAMOND BACK TO THE STUDIO TO RECORD A DUET. AGAINST THE GRAIN BY RON THERIEN 3. JIM REEVES. THE SONG STAYED AT NO. 11 FOR A WHOPPING 14 WEEKS. 2. SIMON AND GARFUNKEL, IN 1970. THE SONG WON FIVE GRAMMYS. 1. JONATHAN EDWARDS, IN 1971.
