Help Keep Bay Weekly a Recycled Product

ay Weekly turns 23 this week. That’s old enough to have graduated college and be looking for a job. By my 23rd birthday, I was a wife and mother of a three-month-old baby, working my way through grad school by teaching freshman composition and English as a Second Language at St. Louis University. I thought I was smart, though I’ve since proven myself largely wrong. Now I’m old enough — and smart enough — to believe that every stage of life has its unique wisdom. So I don’t feel so dumb — or arrogant — when I say Bay Weekly was born smart. We sure thought so, the three founders of this enterprise born as New Bay Times back on Earth Day 1993. Of course every proud parent believes its offspring is special. Mine was proving me right, for that baby, from the John Alexander Knoll, had grown up Editor to partner with me and his stepfather Bill Lambrecht in making a newspaper from no more than our wits, will and experience — with our silent partner, Apple’s wonderchild Macintosh. “We want to create something new,” cofounder Bill Lambrecht wrote in our first editorial, Hello Baysiders. “In these pages, starting today, New Bay Times will explore how we of the Chesapeake Bay can live as best we can in a smart and sustainable way.” We imagined ourselves peaking the wave of change — as well as immersed in Chesapeake Country. That first issue lived up to our boast with stories on issues still hot nearly a quarter-century later. Look back on New Bay Times Vol. 1 No. 1, and you’ll see stories on Bay pollution, the plight of blue crabs and crabbers and kayaking. (Find Vol. 1 No. 1 at http://bayweekly.com/old-site/1993/93v01.html). The 2016 crabbing season begins with crabs in abundance — up 35 percent from last year in the Winter Dredge Survey — and crabbers lobbying to increase their catch. Pollution has proved more complex than simple trash, but trash has grown into a still-bigger problem. And yes, kayaking has become a favorite sport on the Bay.

Your Say The Challenge of Earth Day If we are going to move the nation to an environmentally sustainable economy, you and that young generation right behind you are going to have to do it. by Gaylord Nelson

n 1962, an idea occurred to me that was, I thought, a virtual cinch to get the environment into the political limelight once and for all. The idea was to persuade President John Kennedy to give national visibility to this issue by going on a nationwide conservation tour, spelling out in dramatic language the serious and deteriorating condition of our environment, and proposing a comprehensive agenda to begin addressing the problem. No president had ever made such a tour, and I was satisfied this would finally force the issue onto the nation’s political agenda. The president liked the idea and began his conservation tour in the fall of 1963. Sens. Hubert

Complementing those issue stories was a profile of Miss Ethel Andrews of Shady Side, then approaching her 105th birthday. How many more such stories have followed in 1,167 issues! I can’t count them, but many of them I can remember. A favorite from that first year on a topic just as urgent now: Toilet Training: The Least You Should Know about Your Closest Link to Nature (Vol. 1 No. 12.) That story was written by Carolyn Martin, a journalism pro we titled New Bay Times Special Environmental Correspondent. Photos were shot by David Hawxhurst, who has since shot for National Geographic. So many talented people helped us keep our promise that first year. Fairhaven neighbor Sonia Linebaugh came in to help out and stayed four years. Bill Burton, who stands tall among America’s great outdoors writers, drove down to Deale one June day to offer himself to us as he’d retired from the Evening Sun long before he’d run out of stories. He gave us weekly columns for 16 years, retiring again only weeks before he died. Each of these 23 years has brought its own share of talent, and I could name writers and their stories by the dozens if my son — the final editor we call Chainsaw — would give me enough room. Since our last birthday, we’ve gained Kathy Knotts as our staff writer, Karen Holmes as a dedicated new contributor and more than a dozen prospects coming May 5 to a workshop for new writers. In all of the countless stories we’ve assigned, shepherded, edited and published in 23 years, writers have given their best. Almost every story has been a one-of-akind, hand-crafted original, special to these pages. With this issue we proudly celebrate 23 years of local stories hand-crafted by artisans, written for you and about this estuarine region that is our shared home. ‫ﵭ‬

EDITOR AND

Humphrey, Gene McCarthy, Joe Clark and I accompanied the president on the first leg of his tour. That was the germ of the idea that ultimately flowered into Earth Day. Six years would pass before the idea for Earth Day occurred to me in late July 1969, while on a conservation speaking tour out west. At that time there was a great deal of turmoil on college campuses over the Vietnam War. Protests, called anti-war teach-ins, were being widely held on campuses across the nation. On a flight from Santa Barbara to the University of California/Berkeley, I read an article on the teach-ins and it suddenly occurred to me: Why not have a nationwide teach-in on the environment? That was the origin of Earth Day. I returned to Washington in early August, raised the funds to get Earth Day started and prepared letters. The response was dramatic. It took off like gangbusters. Telegrams, letter and telephone inquiries poured in from all over the nation. Earth Day achieved what I had hoped for. The objective was to get a nationwide demonstration of concern

for the environment so large that it would shake the political establishment out of its lethargy and finally force this issue permanently into the political arena. It was a gamble, but it worked. It was truly an astonishing grassroots explosion. The people cared, and Earth Day became the first opportunity they ever had to join in a nationwide demonstration to send a big message to the politicians — a message to tell them to wake up and do something. It worked because of the spontaneous, enthusiastic response of the grassroots. Nothing like it had ever happened before. Don’t ever forget: If you want to move the nation to make hard decisions on important issues, the grassroots is the source of power. With it you can do anything; without it, nothing. If we are going to move the nation to an environmentally sustainable economy, you and that young generation right behind you are going to have to do it. ‫ﵭ‬ Gaylord Nelson (1916-2005), the founder of Earth Day, was a former Wisconsin governor and U.S. senator. His reflection on the origins of Earth Day appeared in our issue, April 22, 1993.

he grassroots is the source of power. With it you can do anything,” wrote Earth Day founder Gaylord Nelson of the wattage behind his bright idea. Is it shining still? Take an Earth Day No. 47 visit to Goshen Farm’s Spring Open House on April 23, and you’ll see the light. From the grassroots, a community rose to save the last Colonial-era farm on the Broadneck Peninsula. Its work has created a hidden oasis of 22 undeveloped acres, surrounded by Cape St. Claire and Walnut Ridge on the Broadneck Peninsula. “I became slightly obsessed,” Bar-

Why Is Earth Day Also Bay Weekly’s Birthday? hy did a paper on the ins and outs of Chesapeake Country choose Earth Day as its birthday?

This Week’s Creature Feature

OtterMania Celebrate Calvert Marine Museum’s favorite mammal by Kathy Knotts

trip to the Calvert Marine Museum in Solomons is only complete once you have visited the resident river otter, Squeak. Squeak plays in an 8,000-gallon freshwater tank that features windows both indoors and outdoors. Since the death of his companion Bubbles, Squeak has been the only otter at the Marsh Walk exhibit. That’s about to change. Chessie Grace (top) has long whiskers, silky gray fur and chirps like a bird. The 10-week-old female river otter was abandoned by her mother in Ohio but now lives the good life in Solomons, bottle-fed every four hours and going home with her foster family at night. Gracie, as she is known to the aquarists behind the scenes, makes a public appearance next week but does not join the otter habitat until after the exhibit renovations are complete in May.

To catch an early glimpse of Gracie, whose stage name is Bubbles per museum tradition, visit the museum for OtterMania. Museum-goers revel in all things otter during this annual event. Children can dance the Swim with otter mascots, discover where otters live throughout the world and learn what makes the species special. Visitors pretend to be biologists and learn what otters like to eat by examining stomach contents, then get tips on how to capture a photo of Squeak in action. Feel otter fur, discover why swimming outside all year is great for these water weasels and hear fascinating tails of otter adventures. Otters, like children, love to frolic and play with their favorite toys. The mammals are well suited for life in and around the Chesapeake Bay. Otter lovers are invited to use the hashtag #ISpyOtters to share wherever you find these elusive creatures in the wild. ‫ﵭ‬ OtterMania: Tues., Apil 26, 10am-4pm, Calvert Marine Museum, Solomons, $9, www.calvertmarinemuseum.com.

Easy to Bee Passionate Beekeepers know it takes a healthy Earth to build a healthy hive by Karen Holmes

pending your free time with thousands of stinging insects may seem odd. But love is a funny thing, and passion arises unbidden from unlikely sources. Across Bay Country, devotees of the humble honeybee lovingly tend their hives and work to help them thrive. At the same time, beekeepers are caught up in an impassioned fight to protect bees. Around the world, bees are dying in record numbers. Multiple factors are at work, but two of the leading causes — habitat loss and pesticides — are directly related to human activities. Environmental educator Jessica Seabright is dedicated to teaching her young charges about bees. “A lot of people have misconceptions,” she says. “We want kids to know how important bees are for pollinating our fruits and vegetables.” On the wooded campus of Arlington Echo, the outdoor education center of the Anne Arundel County Public School System, Seabright tends six hives, three indoors. “The kids have close encounters with bees and learn about what purpose bees have other than to pester us. They can see what bees look like up close,” she says. The kids love the bee lessons at Arlington Echo Outdoor Education Center. “It’s the only lesson that competes with canoeing for the kids’ favorite,” says Seabright’s colleague Ted Hall. These popular creatures are, like most of us, immigrants, probably brought by English settlers in the early 1600s. Here they found work, and we’ve come to depend on them to pollinate dozens of our favorite crops, from apples, blueberries, strawberries, carrots and broccoli to almonds and coffee. We depend on them, and in the world we’ve made they depend on us.

For the Love of Bees In recent years, keeping bees has been on the rise, as both hobby and small-scale business. Last year, some 1,895 beekeepers were registered with the Maryland Department of Agriculture, almost double the number in 2003. In Chesapeake Country, a perennial force for training aspirants is master beekeeper Steve McDaniel. For 15 years McDaniel has taught the beginner’s 6•

At Arlington Echo Outdoor Education Center, “Kids have close encounters with bees and learn about what purpose bees have other than to pester us,” says environmental educator Jessica Seabright, left. Lyle Wallace, above, created the Goshen Farm Apiary as his Eagle Scout project. The apiary on the Broadneck Peninsula has four hives as well as informational displays, all built by Boy Scout Troop 2214 under Wallace’s direction.

course for the Anne Arundel Beekeepers Association. “People have heard that bees are in trouble and the best way to help is to become a beekeeper,” he says. Teaching the course is fun for McDaniel, who’s been keeping bees since 1979. “There’s nothing like telling someone how to do something to clarify in your own mind how to do it. And I always learn from the students,” he says. Beekeepers and their hives hum in all manner of places. One of the more distinctive is a Zen-like garden atop the Westin Hotel in downtown Annapolis, where Chef James Barrett has been keeping two hives since 2009 (although he lost one last winter). Barrett delights in the sensuous pleasures of beekeeping. “I love to get away for half an hour,” he says. “It’s so peaceful up there, with the sound of the buzzing. It’s a beautiful thing.” In a good year, Barrett harvests about 40 pounds of honey. It’s put to delicious use in dishes such as honeylacquered salmon and honey-cured goat cheese, in gin drinks and honeycomb on cheese boards. Another special setting is the historic Paca House and Garden, where volunteer Peter Quinton tends a hive at the bottom of the garden next to a picturesque pond. A 1963 graduate of the Naval Academy and a retired naval commander, Quinton has kept bees on and off since 1954. In eight years, bee pollination has made Paca’s peach, cherry, apple and pear trees more fruitful. The resulting bounty of peaches is sold to Miss Nancy’s Fancy Bakery, which turns them into jams, sauces and flavored vinegars for sale in the Paca House gift shop.

• April 21 - April 27, 2016

Despite successes, Quinton has frustrations. “In very cold weather, the bees sometimes will not break the warmth of the cluster, and they may starve to death even though there’s plenty of food.” Cold isn’t the only problem. “We’ve lost hives in the middle of summer,” Quinton notes. “The conclusion I’ve drawn is that the bees must have gone foraging somewhere where they were exposed to pesticides.”

Mad as a Bee One of the most ardent advocates for protecting bees from pesticides is Bonnie Raindrop, chair of the Legislative Committee of the Central Maryland Beekeepers Association. Raindrop has become the point person on neonicotinoids, class of pesticides that reaches every cell of its target plant and lingers over multiple growing seasons. Besides killing bees outright, neonics damage bees’ cognitive abilities and their immune systems. Weakened bees are more likely to succumb to parasites

and infections. Last year, Maryland beekeepers lost 61 percent of their hives, about twice the national average. Activism does not come naturally to beekeepers, Raindrop says. “Beekeepers are mostly introverts. We are science nerds, nature nerds. So this is brand new for us.” When it comes to neonics, Raindrop has been a fixture in Annapolis, attending hearings, providing expert testimony and meeting with legislators on beekeepers’ concerns — while leading a contingent of beekeepers in full regalia. “Although many beekeepers have day jobs, we still manage to have a good showing at legislative hearings. People feel passionately about this,” she says. Beekeepers scored a victory on April 7, as Maryland became the first state to vote to restrict all consumer use of neonics. Now the bill must withstand a veto campaign. “We are so pleased that this bill was so strongly supported by both parties and that legislators really heard how important this is to the people of Maryland,” Raindrop says.

Make Your Garden Safe for Bees You don’t have to be a beekeeper to befriend the bees. Read the label carefully before you buy or use pesticides. Products containing neonics will be on the market until 2018, and they may already be lurking in your garage or garden shed. (Perhaps in response to consumer pressure, Scotts Miracle-Gro has announced it will eliminate neonics from its Ortho brand by 2017.) Before you buy any plants, especially bee attractors, ask whether they’ve been pretreated with neonics — the residues can be fatal to bees.

A contingent of beekeepers at the Maryland statehouse, above, scored a first-inthe-nation victory for bees when the legislature voted to restrict all consumer use of neonics, a pesticide blamed for knocking out bee populations. “People have heard bees are in trouble and that the best way to help is to become a beekeeper,” says master beekeeper Steve McDaniel, left.

Safe Spaces for Bees Anna Chaney is another bee champion. “Natural, healthy pollinators are crucial for a healthy food system,” she says. Chaney owns Honey’s Harvest Farm, a 160-acre farm transitioning from conventional agriculture to permaculture. Bob Greenwell, a prominent beekeeper in southern Anne Arundel and northern Calvert County, keeps 14 of his 100 hives there. Honey’s Harvest Farm manages the land to provide forage for bees. “We get aster, goldenrod and hairy vetch in the meadow, plus flowers of tulip poplar and black locust trees nearby,” Greenwell says. Devotion to bees knows no age limit. Lyle Wallace created the Goshen Farm Apiary as his Eagle Scout project. The apiary on the Broadneck Peninsula has four hives as well as informational displays, all built by Boy Scout Troop 2214 under Wallace’s direction. Students from neighboring Cape St. Claire Elementary School visit to learn about the bees, and Wallace and his dad Erik talk with curious gardeners who rent plots at Goshen Farm’s Sharing Garden. Last summer’s harvest, the first since the bees’ arrival, was “pretty amazing,” Wallace says. “The vegetables and produce were really big. I would say that the bees did their job.” Beekeepers have a job that keeps

them as busy as their charges. They must provide all their bees need to flourish while advocating for an environment safe for bees. Teaching gardeners how pesticides affect bees is a big part of the job. “Homeowners do need to realize that despite the landmark vote on neonics legislation, these substances are in products that will remain on store shelves until 2018, and we hope they will choose wisely,” Raindrop says. Even a master like Steve McDaniel has to work to keep his bees safe. During a warm spell in December, they died shortly after going out to forage. “It’s like somebody poisoned my dog,” he says. “But I’m too stubborn to give up. I’ve had too many wonderful experiences with bees.” ‫ﵭ‬

Bee City, USA Annapolis is on the way to becoming a Bee City, USA. A resolution has been put before the City Council, and public hearings are scheduled for May. Some 17 Bee Cities have followed Asheville, NC, since 2012, in creating sustainable habitat for pollinators. “The city will be planting a lot of native plants and also doing education programs to let people know what they can do on their own property to enhance pollinator habitat,” says Maria Broadbent, director of city neighborhood and environmental programs. Annapolis is partnering with Anne Arundel County and the town of Highland Beach to accomplish more together than any one jurisdiction could on its own. “Annapolis is pioneering the partnership approach,” says Phyllis Stiles, Director, Bee City USA. “We’ll be looking at this as a model for the rest of the country.”

More Lines Equal More Fish Managed right, planer boards are great for catching trophy rockfish ish on! Fish on! The call rang out from the bridge, and we rushed out from the cabin to the stern to determine which of the 18 rods had hooked a trophy rockSporting Life fish. Seizing a trolling stout outfit that was bent down by an obviously big striper, my friend Mike began to fight the fish to the boat. by Dennis Doyle Managing to avoid any disastrous tangles, my buddy finally got the fat and healthy 37-incher on deck. It was the first of a number of catches made possible by planer boards.

Increasing the Odds The thrill of trophy rockfish season is getting control of a big oceanrunning fish. Trolling many rods at once increases the odds of success. The challenge is avoiding tangling the active line with the many others still in the water. Because of the other rigs, the boat cannot stop lest there be even

more disastrous tangles. So the victor has to overcome not only the rockfish’s strength but also the boat’s continued speed. A set of connected angled boards towed to either side of a craft as far back as 150 feet, planer boards let you tow multiple lines at various distances and depths without getting them tangled. The result has been an exponential increase in big fish caught, particularly during the trophy season when trolling is by far the most effective technique.

Between Ocean and Bay Most of the big striped bass that cruise the Atlantic Coast from Maine to South Carolina are born in our Chesapeake Bay (where we call them rockfish). They only live in the Bay for four or five years, then migrate to live in the Atlantic. The vast baitfish schools of the ocean feed our stripers to substantial size, often over 50 pounds and sometimes over 100 pounds. These migratory giants return to the Chesapeake once a year, during the early spring, to seek out their natal waters and reproduce. After they’ve spawned, they return to the ocean. Stripers begin spawning as early as February and, depending on water temperatures, can continue into May. But most are done by the third Saturday in April, when the trophy season is scheduled by Maryland law to open. Thus the season is scheduled to target fish that have already strewn their eggs.

On the Downside Planer-board fishing does have its downside. To rig and stream out so many outfits is a complicated affair requiring good teamwork and plenty of planning and preparation. Maneuvering a craft with a 300Thursday sunrise sunset moon

foot-wide trolling footprint can be a big challenge. Despite the usual brightly colored flags marking a planer board setup, they can be hard for other boats to see, especially in choppy waters. Pleasure boaters not familiar with the fishing practice may not notice the devices in the water. The consequences of a collision with one of these towed arrays — even of an abruptly forced course change — can be costly in both time and money. Each individual trolling lure can include expensive, multi-lure umbrella and chandelier rigs. Multiply the individual lure cost by a dozen or more, and there is a significant investment in fishing gear. Plus a large mixup can take hours to untangle and re-deploy. Keep them out of trouble, though, and planer boards catch big fish. ‫ﵭ‬

Fish Finder Trophy rockfish season is on, and the fish are big — more than one catch has been over 50 pounds. Plentiful and widely scattered, a lot of the fish are deep, which is unusual for this time of year, so watch your finders to determine your trolling depth. The best color for lures so far has been white. Chumming, chunking and fishing cut menhaden have been unusually successful this early, with anglers scoring whoppers at both Podickery and Hackett’s. Shore-bound anglers have been hooking up with trophy-sized rock at Sandy Point and Matapeake using big bloodworms and fresh menhaden. Among the big fish are lots of throwbacks, so be sure to use circle hooks when fishing bait. Limit is one fish per day, minimum size 35 inches. For the sake of future fishing, it is always a good idea to release any females still holding eggs, regardless of their size.

matter. When planting rhubarb, I dig a hole the size of a half-bushel basket and add two to three shovels-full of compost and a handful of agricultural limestone, then mix thoroughly. Allow the rhubarb to grow without harvesting for at least two years before pulling your first stems. During your first harvest on the third year of growth, remove no more than half of the stems at any one time and allow one month between harvests. If you see a flower head develop in the center of the clump, remove it with a sharp knife two to three inches from the ground. Allowing the plant to produce seeds during the first three years of growth will weaken the clump. Never try growing rhubarb in a large container or in a raised bed. The roots are sensitive to high temperatures, which will cause the plant to die in midsummer as rooting media rises in aboveground containers or beds. ‫ﵭ‬

The Vegetable We Eat Sweet

Ask The Bay Gardener your questions at DR.FRGouin@gmail.com. Please include your name and address.

Grow a patch of rhubarb y old friend Bill Burton and I once discussed eating freshly harvested rhubarb as kids during hot summer days in New England, where every home had a rhubarb patch Bay Gardener in the backyard. Bill raved about his mother’s rhubarb-custard pie, while I raved about my mother’s strawberry-rhubarb pie. I can still picture myself by Dr. Francis Gouin sitting on the back stairs of our home with a fist full of sugar in my left hand and a freshly harvested stalk of rhubarb in my right. Before each bite, I would dredge the base of the rhubarb stem in the sugar. Those were the days. Rhubarb is a vegetable, not a fruit, although we tend to limit its use to making desserts. One of the great features of rhubarb is that it can be blended with other fruit such as strawberries, blueberries, apples, pears and apricots as the rhubarb absorbs the taste of the fruit. In other

words, you can make a tasty blueberry pie using only one cup of blueberries and two cups of chopped rhubarb. Rhubarb grows best in welldrained soil in full sun. It can tolerate partial shade, but it will produce spindly stems. Since you consume only the stem, the fleshier the stem the better. Never eat the leaves because they contain oxalic acid, which will cause swelling of the tongue. I have seldom seen rhubarb sold in a garden center, though it is commonly listed in seed catalogs. If you order rhubarb for your garden, you will receive in the mail what appears to be a dried-up brown stub. For best results, place it in a cup of water for five days before planting. There are various clones of rhubarb with stems ranging from green to various shades of green to red and red only. There is even a clone labeled Strawberry-rhubarb. I can assure you that it does not have a strawberry flavor. Rhubarb likes mildly acid soil with a moderate amount of organic

Barbershop: The Next Cut This comedy is a love letter and a plea to Chicago alvin (Ice Cube: Ride Along 2) is a second-generation barber on the south side of Chicago. The shop is now co-ed with a new business partner (Regina Hall: Black-ish). Calvin is proud of his neighborhood, but it’s changing. He barely THE recognizes the OVIEGOER street where he’s spent his whole life. Robberies and shootings make the barbers fearful of working after dark. As son J a y l e n (Michael Jr.: Rainey Movie reviews by Power) considDiana Beechener ers joining a gang, Calvin makes the barbershop a safe space in hopes of encouraging his community to embrace non-violence. If the gambit fails, Calvin plans to

move his family and business to Chicago’s safer north side. Barbershop: The Next Cut strikes a surprising balance between commentary and comedy. Past installments have been far broader comedies, featuring slapstick humor, silly jokes and good music. This film, the third in the series, seeks to provoke change as well as laughter. Director Malcolm D. Lee (The Best Man Holiday) balances humor with drama so that neither overwhelms. Best of all are the performances. Ice Cube is a charismatic performer skilled as both a dramatic actor and straight man to the shenanigans in the shop. Cedric the Entertainer (The Soul Man) remains the perfect clown, spouting ridiculous oneliners and riling up the rest of the cast. As for a solution to stop the violence in Chicago, you’ll find opinions on what shouldn’t be done but few realistic solutions beyond don’t give up.

But Alan goes to Saudi Arabia unprepared, clueless as to customs and frustrated by red tape. To make the deal, he relies on the help of his cab driver and a charming doctor. Improbable as it is, it gives the film a story. The success of a culture-clash movie, like a business deal, depends on how it’s done. A Hologram for the King seems to depend on the low-hanging fruit of derision, giving people of one culture opportunity to laugh at the strangeness of another. Having sleepwalked through

the last decade of work, Hanks seems to be phoning in another affable but trivial performance. Prospects: Dim • R • 97 mins.

The Huntsman: Winter’s War Long before Queen Ravenna (Charlize Theron) plotted to kill Snow White and seize the kingdom, the evil queen turned on her sister Freya (Emily Blunt) to kill her baby. The grieving mother swears revenge and takes the children of the kingdom to the far north for training as an ice army. Among them is the Huntsman (Chris Hemsworth), who must decide which sister to support. The sequel to a mediocre movie, Winter’s War promises a worse story by bored actors. Can even Theron save this one? Prospects: Dim • PG-13 • 123 mins.

Miles Ahead Written, directed and acted by Don Cheadle, this is a passion project about jazz great Miles Davis. Biopics tend to portray their subjects as saints, so it should be interesting to see how Cheadle — an actor of impressive range — tackles Davis’ infamous temper and substance abuse.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): “The writer should never be ashamed of staring,” said Aries writer Flannery O’Connor. “There is nothing that does not require his attention.” This is also true for all of you Aries folks, not just the writers among you. And the coming weeks will be an especially important time for you to cultivate a piercing gaze that sees deeply and shrewdly. You will thrive to the degree that you notice details you might normally miss or regard as unimportant. What you believe and what you © by Rob Brezsny think won’t be as important as what you perceive. Trust your eyes.

Free Will Astrology

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): The ancient Greek geographer Pausanias told a story about how the famous poet Pindar got his start. One summer day, young Pindar decided to walk from his home in Thebes to a city 20 miles away. During his trek, he got tired and lay down to take a nap by the side of the road. As he slept, bees swarmed around him and coated his lips with wax. He didn’t wake up until one of the bees stung him. For anyone else, this might have been a bother. But Pindar took it as an omen that he should become a lyric poet, a composer of honeyed verses. And that’s exactly what he did in the ensuing years. I foresee you having an experience comparable to Pindar’s sometime soon, Taurus. How you interpret it will be crucial.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): “I measure the strength of a spirit by how much truth it can take,” said philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche. Measured by that standard, your strength of spirit has been growing — and may be poised to reach an all-time high. In my estimation, you now have an unusually expansive capacity to hold surprising, effervescent, catalytic truths. Do you dare invite all these insights and revelations to come pouring toward you? I hope

so. I’ll be cheering you on, praying for you to be brave enough to ask for as much as you can possibly accommodate.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Göbekli Tepe was a monumental religious sanctuary built 11,600 years ago in the place we now call Turkey. Modern archaeologists are confounded by the skill and artistry with which its massive stone pillars were arranged and carved. According to conventional wisdom, humans of that era were primitive nomads who hunted animals and foraged for plants. So it’s hard to understand how they could have constructed such an impressive structure 7,000 years before the Great Pyramid of Giza. Writing in National Geographic, science journalist Charles C. Mann said, “Discovering that hunter-gatherers had constructed Göbekli Tepe was like finding that someone had built a 747 in a basement with an X-Acto knife.” In that spirit, Cancerian, I make the following prediction: In the coming months, you can accomplish a marvel that may have seemed beyond your capacity.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): In myths and folklore, the ember is a symbol of coiled-up power. The fire within it is controlled. It provides warmth and glow even as its raw force is contained. There are no unruly flames. How much energy is stored within? It’s a reservoir of untapped light, a promise of verve and radiance. Now please ruminate further about the ember, Leo. According to my reading of the astrological omens, it’s your core motif right now.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Uhoh. Or maybe I should instead say Hooray! You are slipping into the Raw Hearty Vivid Untamed Phase of your astrological cycle. The universe is nudging you in the direction of high adventure, sweet intensity and rigorous stimulation. If you choose to resist the nudges, odds are that you’ll have more of an uh-oh experience. If you decide to play along, hooray! is the likely outcome. To help you get in the proper mood, make the following declaration: “I like to think that my bones are made from oak, my blood from a waterfall and my heart from wild daisies.” (That’s a quote from the poet McKenzie Stauffer.)

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): In many cultures, the butterfly is a symbol of transformation and rebirth. In its original state as a caterpillar, it is homely and slow-moving. After its resurrection time in the chrysalis, it becomes a lithe and lovely creature capable of flight. The mythic meaning of the moth is quite different, however. Enchanted by the flame, it’s driven so strongly toward the light that it risks burning its wings. So it’s a symbol of intense longing that may go too far. In the coming weeks, Libra, your life could turn either way. You may even vacillate between being moth-like and butterfly-like. For best results, set an intention. What exactly do you want?

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): “I gladly abandon dreary tasks, rational scruples, reactive undertakings imposed by the world,” wrote Scorpio philosopher Roland Barthes. Why did he do this? For the sake of love, he said — even though he knew it might cause him to act like a lunatic as it freed up tremendous energy. Would you consider pursuing a course like that in the coming weeks, Scorpio? In my astrological opinion, you have earned some time off from the grind. You need a break from the numbing procession of the usual daily rhythms. Is there any captivating person, animal, adventure or idea that might so thoroughly incite your imagination that you’d be open to acting like a lunatic lover with boundless vigor?

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): “Difficulties illuminate existence,” says novelist Tom Robbins, “but they must be fresh and of high quality.” Your assignment, Sagittarius, is to go out in search of the freshest and highestquality difficulties you can track down. You’re slipping into a magical phase of your astrological cycle when you will have exceptional skill at rounding up useful dilemmas and exciting riddles. Please take full advantage! Welcome this rich opportunity to outgrow and escape boring old problems.

you have a poetic license and a spiritual mandate to utter battle cries like that as often as the mood strikes. Feel free to embellish and improvise, as well: When I grow up, I want to be a riot girl with a big brash attitude, for example, or When I grow up, I want to be a beautiful playful monster with lots of toys and fascinating friends who constantly amaze me.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): In one of his diaries, author Franz Kafka made this declaration: “Life’s splendor forever lies in wait around each one of us in all of its fullness — but veiled from view, deep down, invisible, far off. It is there, though, not hostile, not reluctant, not deaf. If you summon it by the right word, by its right name, it will come.” I’m bringing this promise to your attention, Aquarius, because you have more power than usual to call forth a command performance of life’s hidden splendor. You can coax it to the surface and bid it to spill over into your daily rhythm. For best results, be magnificent as you invoke the magnificence.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): I’ve got a controversial message for you, Pisces. If you’re addicted to your problems or if you’re convinced that cynicism is a supreme mark of intelligence, what I’ll say may be offensive. Nevertheless, it’s my duty as your oracle to inform you of the cosmic tendencies, and so I will proceed. For the sake of your mental health and the future of your relationship with love, consider the possibility that the following counsel from French author André Gide is just what you need to hear right now: “Know that joy is rarer, more difficult and more beautiful than sadness. Once you make this all-important discovery, you must embrace joy as a moral obligation.” HOMEWORK: If you had to choose one wild animal to follow, observe, and learn from for three weeks, which would it be? FreeWillAstrologuy.com.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): “When I grow up, I want to be a little boy,” wrote novelist Joseph Heller in his book Something Happened. You have cosmic permission to make a comparable declaration in the coming days. In fact,

Body-Modification Exemplar Eva Tiamat Medusa, 55, of the Phoenix area, has almost completed her journey (she calls it transspecieism) to become a mythical beast — like a dragon video-game character — through purposeful facial scarring, surgical implants and even removal of both ears. Tiamat was born Richard Hernandez before becoming female and now sports such features as by Chuck Shepherd reptilian-style scales, skin green-colored whites of the eyes, horns on her forehead and, of course, breasts.

News of the Weird

Government in Action • The Pentagon admitted recently that it has no way to know how many parts or devices are in its equipment inventory — except by going through its estimated 30 million contracts (on the text-unsearchable electronic database) one by one. For a recent Freedom of Information request from a software developer (for the Pentagon’s number of HotPlug power-extenders for computers), it quoted a retrieval price of $660 million to cover 15 million hours of work. • Wait, What? The most recent problem with the Defense Department’s prospective, ultra-modern F-35 fighter jet, revealed in March, is that its radar control sometimes malfunctions and that system updates will not be ready until 2020. In the interim, an Air Force official advised that, as a workaround, the radar could be turned off and then back on again (similar to restarting a glitchy computer).

lionaires, proposed a subsidy plan in March to help with steep housing costs. In a town where tiny homes sell for $2 million (and are immediately knocked down and rebuilt), subsidies will be available even to families earning $250,000 a year. (2) In February, a family court in England reduced the childsupport payments from hedge fund financier Christopher Rokos to the mother of his 7-year-old son from the equivalent of about $17,000 a month to about $11,300 — though that amount includes more than $1,200 a month for wine (perhaps, in case the kid is a handful). • The giant HSBC Bank, which was let off the hook in 2012 for its moneylaundering by paying a $1.9 billion settlement and promising to vigilantly guard against future money laundering, was revealed in March to be regressing. HSBC’s monitor said that the bank somehow failed to stop transactions by a company whose professed business included exporting miniskirts to Iran (which would be against international sanctions but also not exactly smart business). In another incident, a 19-yearold Mexican man in the drug-cartelintensive Sinaloa state was allowed to open a private-wealth account with just a bagful of cash, claiming to be a shrimp farmer.

expensive alternative to bariatric surgery, with the ability to evacuate up to 30 percent of recently eaten food from the stomach before digestion. A tube, through a port in the stomach, sucks (aspirates) the food. (2) Researchers at HRL Laboratories in California, in a recent journal article, reported that test subjects without airplane-pilot knowledge nonetheless performed flight simulations 33 percent better than a control group after the researchers uploaded electrical signals to certain pilotinghelpful areas of their brains.

Latest Religious Messages

The Underrated Goldfish

In March, Kingdom Church, in the south London district of Camberwell, was fined the equivalent of about $10,900 by the Southwark Council for its amplified music and incessant loud preaching, ritually performed almost daily at around 3am. A spokesperson told the London Evening Standard that the timing was necessary because that is when evil spirits are most likely to be present.

Veterinarian Tristan Rich, in Melbourne, Australia, was credited in March with saving the life of a 9-year-old goldfish (Bubbles) by removing its brain tumor. Dr. Rich had to first figure out how to keep Bubbles out of water long enough to operate, but finally rigged a contraption to continually splash water over the gills. This was Dr. Rich’s second

O Canada! • Latest Behavior Standards: (1) The town council in Bracebridge, Ontario, approved a new municipal bylaw in March ending existing prohibitions on people engaging in “yelling, shouting, hooting or similar noises.” (Other noise controls, such as on audio devices, or by humans between 11pm and 7am, remain in effect.) (2) Also in March, the city council in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, was considering a proposed anti-bullying bylaw prohibiting gossip or (according to the National Post) “rumor-mongering, name-calling, taunting, mocking and ostracizing” — not only in the streets and parks but in public places such as bars and restaurants.

heroic goldfish surgery. (Bubbles’ breed was not reported; ordinary goldfish can be purchased for less than $1.)

Least Competent Criminals Bad enough that Alfonso Mobley Jr., 26, is a “sovereign citizen,” self-proclaimed as exempt from obeying laws or paying taxes, but on April 5 he also lost both hands — when a bomb he was working on exploded in Columbus, Ohio. The bomb was made of the same material as that in the November terrorist attacks in Paris. A 2010 FBI report labeled sovereign citizens a domestic terrorist group, but Mobley’s associate (who was not hurt) told police the bomb was to be simply a diversion for their planned bank or armored-car robbery.

Recurring Themes (1) First it was Pastafarians of the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster insisting on wearing colanders for driver’s license photos. Then, in Portland, Oregon, last year, a man who goes by Bishop insisted on his own driver’s license “religious covering” — a “fox” hat to honor his “seven drums” religion. The DMV turned him down, but in March 2016, he won his appeal. (2) In the latest episode of an over-the-top obsessive cat, Sarah Nathan’s Brigit, age 6, had her cover blown in March when she collected a dozen boxer briefs and about 60 socks — all apparently klepto-lifted from neighbors in Hamilton, New Zealand. Nathan admitted that she may ultimately have to stash some underwear around her farm just to keep Brigit stimulated.
