SALOME’S STARS HOROSCOPE
ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Time
is on your side in the early part of
the week. But anything left undone
by midweek will need to be put into
rush mode. Th e weekend off ers
choices for you and someone special.
AMBER WAVES
by Dave T. Phipps
GEMINI (May 21 to June 20)
Despite the progress made, a hint of
doubt might set in. Th at’s OK. You
need to stop and consider not only
what you’re doing but also how you
are doing. Make adjustments where
needed.
by Jeff Pickering
THE SPATS
LAFF-A-DAY
TAURUS (April 30 to May 20) Fi-
nally getting credit for a contribution
is nice for all you idea-generating
Ferdinands and Fernandas. But don’t
sit on your laurels under the cork
tree. Use it as a fi rst step to a bigger
opportunity.
CANCER (June 21 to July 22)
Th e dreamer is dominant in the
Moon Child’s aspect, but a dollop of
hardheaded practicality is coming
up fast and jockeying for space. Th e
challenge is to make room for both
modes.
FLASHBACK
LEO (July 23 to August 22) It’s a
good week for Leos and Leonas to
start assessing what they’ve done
and what they plan to do. Moving
to a new environment -- home or
job-related -- is a possibility for some
Cats.
SUPER CROSSWORD: FAMILY EXPANSION
by Mick Harper
1. Who wrote about
Trench Town?
2. Which two groups
merged to form
Showaddywaddy?
3. Name the fi rst
group to release
“Devil or Angel.”
4. Who released “Bay
City” and “Sandy” in
1965?
5. Name the song that
contains this lyric:
“Like my father be-
fore me I’m a working
man, And like my
brother before me,
I took a rebel stand,
Well, he was just 18,
proud and brave, But
a Yankee laid him in
his grave.”
CRYPTOQUIP
VIRGO (August 23 to September
22) Th e week calls for Virgos to
make tough decisions, but in a way
that leaves the door open for chang-
es. Ask for advice from someone
who has been in the position you’re
in now.
LIBRA (September 23 to October
22) Disappointments are never easy
to take, but you have the ability to
learn from them and go on to suc-
cess. Meanwhile, continue to build
up your contacts. You’ll need them
soon.
SCORPIO (October 23 to Novem-
ber 21) Th ings might still be going
much too slowly to suit you. But you
need the time to make sure they’re
going in the right direction. It’s easier
to make a course correction now
rather than later.
ANSWERS
1. Bob Marley, in his
song by the same
name. Trench Town,
a neighborhood in
Kingston, Jamaica,
was the birthplace of
reggae.
2. Choise and the
Golden Hammers,
giving them dual
vocalists, guitar play-
ers, bass players and
drummers. Th e British
band continues to tour.
3. Th e Clovers in
1955. Started in 1946
and breaking up and
reforming multiple
times, over the years
the group has had
approximately 30
members.
4. Ronny and Th e
Daytonas.
5. “Th e Night Th ey
Drove Old Dixie
Down,” by Th e Band
in 1969, followed by
Joan Baez’s version
in 1971. Th e song
tells of the last days of
the Civil War. Baez’s
version changed the
lyrics, leaving out
“Stoneman’s cavalry.”
SUDOKU
DIFFICULTY THIS WEEK
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to
December 21) Showing some tem-
perament at the way things are going
is one way of getting your point
across. Just don’t overdo it, or you
risk turning away more-moderate
supporters.
CAPRICORN (December 22 to
January 19) Th ings could change
more quickly this week than you
like. But don’t fret; you’ll most likely
fi nd that you’re up to the challenges.
Th e weekend off ers much-needed
relaxation.
AQUARIUS (January 20 to Febru-
ary 18) Big challenge coming up?
Uncross those fi ngers and believe
that you’re going to do well. And
keep in mind that so many people
have faith in your ability to succeed.
PISCES (February 19 to March 20)
Testing the waters is a good way of
learning about an opportunity before
plunging right in. Ask more ques-
tions and be alert to any attempts to
avoid giving complete answers.
BORN THIS WEEK: You have a gift
for making people -- and animals,
too -- feel special and loved.
