Th e group disbanded aft er Bonham’s death in 1980. He’d ingested the equivalent of 40 shots of vodka in a 24-hour period. 2. Sly and the Family Stone, on their 1973 “Fresh” album. 3. It’s short ... 1.36 sec- onds, to be exact. 4. Keith Moon of Th e Who. He’d put too much fl ash powder in the drums, and the explosion nearly took out the stage. Th e band was known for ex- plosions and crushed instruments during their performances, but this prank resulted in actual shrapnel from the cymbals. 5. “Shoo-Be-Doo- Be-Doo-Da-Day,” by Stevie Wonder, in 1968. It was the fi rst song where he used the clavinet, an electrically amplifi ed clavichord. A number of groups produced music with the clavinet, mostly for sound eff ects, but by the 1990s spare parts were hard to fi nd. CRYPTOQUIP OBITUARY POLICY GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) A personal disappointment should be viewed as a valuable learning experi- ence. Go over what went wrong and see where a change in tactics might have led to a more positive outcome. by Jeff Pickering CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Don’t leave projects unfi nished or personal obligations unresolved, or you might fi nd yourself tripping over all those loose ends later on. A relative has important news. FLASHBACK The Hermiston Herald publishes paid obituaries. The obituary can include small photos and, for veterans, a fl ag symbol at no charge.

Although you might prefer the tried-and-true, once you take a good look at this new idea, you might feel more receptive to it. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Much work has yet to be done to polish a still-rough idea into something with signifi cant potential. Expect to encounter some initial re- jection, but stay with it nonetheless. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Th ere still might be some com- munication problems in the work- place, but they should be resolved soon. Meanwhile, that “tip” from a friend should be checked out. SCORPIO (October 23 to Novem- ber 21) A new relationship appears to need more from you than you might be willing to give right now. Best advice: Resist making promises you might not be able to keep. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Th at restless feeling encourages you to gallop off into a new venture. But remember to keep hold of the reins so you can switch paths when necessary. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) A demanding work schedule keeps the high-spirited Goat from kicking up his or her heels. But playtime beckons by the week’s end. Have fun. You earned it. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) You’re beginning to come out from under those heavy responsibilities you took on. Use this freed-up time to enjoy some much-deserved fun with people close to you. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Before you get swept away by a tidal wave of confl icting priorities, take time to come up for air, and reassess the situation. You might be sur- prised by what you’ll fi nd. BORN THIS WEEK: Your lead- ership qualities are enhanced by a practical sense of purpose that keeps you focused on your goals.
