include small photos and, for
veterans, a fl ag symbol at no charge.
Expanded death notices will be
published at no charge. These include
information about services.
Obituaries may be edited for

VIRGO (August 23 to September
22) It’s a good time to shake up
your tidy little world by doing
something spontaneous, like tak-
ing an unplanned trip or going on
a mad shopping spree.
LIBRA (September 23 to October
22) Th is is a good week to get
advice on your plans. But don’t
act on them until you feel sure
that you’ve been told everything
you need to know to support your
move.
SCORPIO (October 23 to Novem-
ber 21) Be careful. You might be
probing just a little too deeply into
a situation that you fi nd singularly
suspicious. Th e facts you seek will
begin to emerge at a later time.
ANSWERS
1. Brooklyn. In fact
many people think the
name of the song is
“Last Exit to Brooklyn.”
2. Lou Christie, in
1966. A second, milder
version had to quickly
be recorded aft er so
many complaints
caused the song to
be banned from the
airwaves in many
locations.
3. Th e Box Tops in
1969, and Roxette, the
Swedish pop duo, in
1986.
4. Ambrosia, in 1970.
Most of the original
group is still together
and still touring aft er
all these years.
5. “Copacabana,” by
Barry Manilow in
1978. Th e lyrics de-
scribe a 1940s Havana
showgirl, Lola, and her
lover Tony, a bartender
at the club. When a
mobster named Rico
tried to seduce her,
Tony attacks him and
is killed. Th irty years
later, Lola still sits there
pining for Tony, her
lost love.

LEO (July 23 to August 22) Your
Leonine pride might be keeping
you from getting to the source of a
disturbing situation. Don’t be shy
about asking questions. Remem-
ber: Information is power.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22
to December 21) Th is is a good
week to make new friends and to
look for new career challenges. But
fi rst, get all those unfi nished tasks
wrapped up and out of the way.
CAPRICORN (December 22 to
January 19) Relationships need
a fresh infusion of tender, loving
care. Avoid potential problems
down the line. Stay close to loved
ones as the month draws to a
close.
AQUARIUS (January 20 to Feb-
ruary 18) Aspects favor relation-
ships, whether platonic, profes-
sional or personal. On another
note: Be a mite more thrift y. You
might need some extra money
very soon.
PISCES (February 19 to March
20) Th is is the absolute right time
to let those oft en-hidden talents
shine their brightest. You’ll im-
press some very important people
with what you can do.
BORN THIS WEEK: You are
impelled by a need to fi nd truth,
no matter how elusive. You would
make a wonderful research scien-
tist or an intrepid detective.
