Gloucester South-Nepean Coun. Michael Qaqish, left, and Beacon Hill Cyrville Tim Tierney get into the groove while councillors George Darouze and Mathieu Fleury cheer them on during a lumberjack competition in Vanier on March 28. The contest was part of the annual Maple Sugar Festival in Richelieu Park, which revolves around the park’s urban sugar shack. The ‘City Hallers’ won the friendly competition that included sawing, axe-throwing and hammering nails. Darouze cheerfully attributed the win to the presence of a rural councillor.

broaden its clientele to serve more than just seniors and adults with disabilities, according to its executive director. Mary Acton-Bond said the organization’s board of directors approved a new five-year strategic plan in December that centres on turning ROSSS into a support hub for all rural south residents. Currently the organization mostly supports seniors and adults with disabilities. ROSSS runs a Meals on Wheels program, regular outreach activities, preventative health clinics and transportation services for clients who would otherwise be stuck at home. But Acton-Bond said rural services are so lacking across all areas that it makes sense to put ROSSS’s expertise to work to support other groups as well. “We would like to be that door, that referral source, that connection point to put you in touch with the right people,” she said. That will involve partnering with organizations that don’t

necessary have the resources to serve the rural population, be that legal aid, a mental health outreach program or a specific support group like the Acquired Brain Injury Association, for example. “The urban organizations would like to have a presence in the rural area, but don’t have the capacity to take on the space,” Acton-Bond said. “If we can say we have a desk open on Wednesdays for your counselling program, we can make that happen.” While mental health support is the first gap to come to mind, Acton-Bond said ROSSS has lots of expertise in things like transportation services that can be used to help other populations – youth, for example. “The rural teen has the same isolation issues as a senior, almost,” Acton-Bond said. “If we can help youth gain some independence, we would like to support that as well.” To kick-start the transition, ROSSS is asking for community feedback through a short survey on the kinds of services needed in the rural south com-

munity. “ROSSS is now ready to take the next step and is looking for input from residents of Rural Ottawa South to ensure that this hub will meet the unique needs of our community,” Acton-Bond wrote in an introductory letter. The survey asks for feedback on the types of barriers facing every group, from women to francophones to queer and transgender communities. It also asks participants to list what they feel are the community’s greatest strengths when it comes to services offered. The survey can be completed online at rosss.ca or in print at the head office in Manotick’s Dickinson Square. It can also be printed off and mailed into the office. ROSSS will also host three forums this spring: two small focus groups for volunteers and clients respectively, and a larger community forum on May 7 from 7 to 9 p.m. The location has yet to be determined, but residents are encouraged to watch for details at rosss.ca. To register for any of the three forums, call the ROSSS office at 613-692-4697.

City, museums launch treasure trove of online records

Look inside for the

“All of the museums have quite large collections, but typically only a small percentage is used in exhibits,” Jamieson said. “This allows us to get all of our artifacts online over time, and people will be able to see what we have.” Osgoode Township Museum manager Robin Cushnie said that while it may only boost physical attendance at her site by a small amount, access to the remote museum’s catalogue has just increased exponentially by letting people see what the museum has before they make the trip. “We are in an inaccessible location if you’re not able to drive to us,” she said. Instead of trekking there only to discover the information you need isn’t available, now you can find what you need online and simply call up the museum to get copies. “We’ve gone from being a tiny little museum in Vernon to being a museum in the world,” said Jane Cooper, a museum volunteer. Check out the catalogue at ottawa.minisisinc.com.

A project nine years in the making has put Ottawa’s history online for all to see – something the city’s community museums hope will boost interest in local heritage. The Ottawa museums and archives virtual collections catalogue launched March 30, instantly making 30,000 records of artifacts, images and documents available to the world. But it’s mostly local residents, students and researchers expected to dive down the archival rabbit hole, which includes everything from armadillo carcass handbags to vintage Ottawa Citizen photographs. “I’m going to love this and I’m sure residents are going to love this just as much,” said Bay Ward councillor and Deputy Mayor Mark Taylor, who helped launch the site at the city archives building in Nepean. “When you see 10,000 web hits in the first week, that’s me late at night clicking

said the catalogue will grow over time as museum and archive staff continue to dump data into the system. OMN members Nepean Museum, Fairfields Heritage House, Pinhey’s Point Historic Site and Watson’s Mill are noticeably missing from the list of collections, and that’s in part because some museums don’t have artifact collections to speak of, Lund said. Watson’s Mill, for example, is a “living museum” in the sense that the working grist mill is itself the artifact – and that’s hard to turn into individual data records. “It’s a question of whether they have the artifacts, and if they have photographs of the artifacts,” Lund said. “This project is a starting point,” he said. “We’re pretty open to any Ottawa museum or heritage institution. Kathryn Jamieson, curator at the Goulbourn Museum and chairperson of the Ottawa Museum Network, said the new website greatly expands the amount of content available to the public at any given time.

on everything.” The digitization project was mandated through the city’s 20/20 Heritage Plan, which called for a city-wide collections data base. It includes collection catalogues from the city’s archives and two of its community museums: Billings Estate National Historic Site and Cumberland Heritage Village Museum. Another five communityrun museums also offered up their digital catalogues: the Goulbourn Museum in Stittsville, the Diefenbunker in Carp, Osgoode Township Museum in Vernon, the Bytown Museum downtown and Museoparc in Vanier. Collectively, the new website hosts 30,000 records, each searchable by keywords and collection. “(It) is an amazing online tool that lets users discover the history of their city right at their fingertips,” Taylor told a small crowd of city and museum staff.

Chef competition puts the ‘fun’ in fundraiser Continued from page 1

The fundraiser at the Arrow and Loon restaurant in the Glebe will support the group’s annual conference, which this September will focus on the United Nations’ 70th anniversary. The chef competition is the brainchild of event co-ordinator Nindi Sarkar, who put a call out for local cooks earlier this year. She narrowed down a list of 14 through interviews and personal tastings; Parks served her his beef carpaccio and fried oysters. Sarkar said she knew right away that the Main Street Cellar chef would be a perfect match to face off against parliamentary restaurant cook Justin Scott, who had already been accepted.

Ottawa Valley Tours

“Both chefs are young, they have a cooking style that is very unique to themselves,” she said. “I wanted to put out a very balanced competition of two peers that are competing against each other.” Parks may only be 23, but the Maberly native already has a decade of cooking experience under his apron. He started his career as a dishwasher at an organic restaurant in his hometown, moving quickly to chopping veggies before getting plucked to the cook’s line to hone his culinary skills. He attended St. Laurence College for a cooking apprenticeship, but didn’t finish – opting to work in his field, instead. Parks joined the Main Street Cellar in Manotick last September and took over the kitchen

ents until the day of the competition. That morning, they’ll receive a list and have three hours to plan their menu around it. Event planners will shop on their behalf, and then the cooks will have from 5 to 7 p.m. to get ready for the dinner service. Parks said he won’t overcomplicate his menu. “I want to cook food that is simple,

that everyone will like,” he said. He’s pretty confident when it comes to Italian fare – he spent three months at an Italian cooking school last year – but there are a few genres that might force him to get creative. “The only two I would find hard are Asian and Indian,” he said. “But I know the basics; I could come up with something.”He’s not nervous – yet – but Main Street Cellar owner Kim Burns said she’ll be pleased whether Parks takes home the title or not. “For me, he’s proven himself so far just by getting himself into the competition,” she said. Of course, if he does win they’ll look at adding his creation to the menu. “If people love it, we have to have the award-winning dish,” she laughed. Of course, having Parks on the roster will help put Manotick on the foodie map, she added. “Being in Manotick, we struggle to be heard and seen,” Burns said. Tickets for the contest are $65 each for 10 courses and dessert. They can be purchased at group78.org.

City hall alive with the sound of music Emma Jackson

emma.jackson@metroland.com

Residents can catch free chamber music concerts this spring thanks to a partnership between the city of Ottawa and the Ottawa Chamber Music Society, also known as Chamberfest Ottawa.

Every Wednesday until May 6, performers will fill city hall with the sound of music between 12:15 and 1 p.m. NAC Orchestra members Carissa Klopoushak, a violinist, and Julia MacLaine on the cello kicked off the new sixweek ‘city series’ with several classical duos in the hall’s main

concourse on April 1. Chamberfest’s education and community engagement co-ordinator Colin McFarland said the concert series not only promotes the 15-day festival scheduled for July 23 to Aug. 6 this summer, but also puts chamber music in the path of people who may not

know they like it. “It’s a perfect opportunity for new people to encounter what we do,” McFarland said. All performances will take place in the main concourse except for the performance on April 8, which will be held in Jean Pigott Place. SERIES SCHEDULE

• April 8: Jesse Stewart: DOME (Dynamics of Musical

Exploration) • April 15: Le Quatuor Despax • April 22: uOttawa School of Music String Quintet • April 29: Ottawa Children’s Choir, Conductor: Jackie Hawley • May 6: Chorale De La Salle, Conductor: Robert Filion

Cellist Julia MacLaine performs at city hall on April 1.

While he admitted he’s probably a few years from needing the $3,000 specialty tub, he quipped to Bath Depot salesperson Martin Belanger – much to his mother’s chagrin – that she’s getting a little closer.

Take up fight against fraud

E

ach year, thousands of people across the country lose millions of dollars through scams and fraudulent schemes. The way to combat this is through public awareness. Let’s talk about fraud, open up a dialogue and report on the harmful aspects of this type of victimization. According to the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre, 66 per cent of Canadian-based mass marketing fraud that took place in 2014 was Internet and email based. Twenty per cent was conducted over the phone and the majority of victims are ages 50 to 70. Fraud is a terrible thing. It preys on honest citizens who are perhaps investing funds to save for retirement, or making a donation to a charity they trust. When the relationships break down and the money is gone, many victims feel shame and embarrassment. However, they can play an important role in investigating fraud, but the anti-fraud centre says

just five per cent report the crimes. If they share their stories, they could prevent other family members, friends or neighbours from falling for the same scams. Lottery and prize fraud schemes are also on the rise, and the CAFC says that in 2014 more than 4,000 Canadians reported prize or lottery fraud and 652 of those lost a total of more than $4.3 million. We should all keep in mind the old adage, “If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.� Keep in mind that most banking institutions and legal firms don’t send out blanket form emails to people asking for their personal information, so don’t give that information to anyone unless you have verified they are a company you deal with and know. Doing a bit of homework and taking a few extra steps could make all the difference in not becoming a victim of fraud. There’s no shame in doing a good deed or saving for your future. We all just need to be a little more careful where we put our hard-earned money.

Philanthropy, brought to you by ‌

he dictionary defines charity as “the voluntary giving of help, typically in the form of money, to those in need.� But the dictionary was written a few years ago. A more modern definition might read something like this: “the voluntary giving of help, typically in the form of money, to those in need, as long as the donor gets his name on a plaque.� This is what we draw from recent trends in philanthropy, including the revelation the National Capital Commission has reversed its policy barring onsite donor recognition. Instead of just mulling it over, as many of us would do, the NCC followed the familiar governmental pattern in paying $35,000 for some consultants to do the mulling.

CHARLES GORDON Funny Town The consultants’ report, quoted in the Ottawa Citizen, concluded that: “Donors are sometimes deterred from contributing upon learning that no indication of their contribution will be placed near the commemoration itself. Opening up the possibility of onsite donor recognition would likely increase the availability of private sector funds for the program.� In other words, you don’t put the guy’s name up somewhere, he doesn’t kick in.

ration with lots of dough, that hurts. It’s not that there’s anything particularly new about the concept. Donors rarely go unrecognized these days. University buildings and even seminar rooms are named after people and corporations. Concert programs list donors, sometimes even telling how much they gave. Museums have galleries with people’s names on them. It’s getting so life is beginning to resemble televised sporting events, where the first period is brought to you by somebody, the power play is brought to you by somebody else, and the out-of-town scoreboard is made possible for another corporation that paid for the privilege. None of which is to denigrate the spirit of giving.

private donors. Not all of us are so generous and many important parts of our lives would not be possible without that generosity. But, leafing through the program, don’t you have a sneaking admiration for good old Anonymous? It’s human nature to expect thanks for the good deeds, and it’s common courtesy to extend those thanks. But have we reached the point where no monument can go up without an indication of the contributors? If that’s true, we can at least hope Anonymous will be among them. A monument is supposed to be about what it’s about – whether it’s victims of communism or the Stanley Cup. And it should stand or not stand on the merits of the idea, not on the number of people who are willing to give financially to it.

Reclining FuRnituRe Doesn’t Have to be Ugly

Week In RevIeW Saturday was a very busy day and started nicely with the Rural Connections Metcalfe Cooperative Nursery School annual Easter Bunny Breakfast. It was a well organized event and wonderful to see so many people in attendance. Following the breakfast, I was on my way to Vanier to join in the Lumberjack competition thanks to a very kind invitation from Councillor Fleury. It was a fun afternoon and a great opportunity to meet residents from other parts of the City. The afternoon was spent at the Oakridge Custom Home Care launch. Here I had the opportunity to welcome a new business to our ward as well as provide greetings from the Mayor. On Tuesday, I had the pleasure of speaking to a Grade 11 Law class at Osgoode Township High School. It was a nice opportunity to talk to the students about municipal government and answer their questions. Thank you to Mr. Powers for extending the invitation and to the Bylaw officer for participating in the presentation as well.

On Wednesday, I was out at Stanley’s Maple Lane Farm for the Seniors Day. It was a terrific event and the entertainment was very enjoyable. Hopefully it was also well received by those in attendance. Later that afternoon we hosted the 2015 Women’s FIFA World Cup Trophy Tour launch. I am very excited that our City has the chance to welcome this world event this summer. In the evening I attended an informal agricultural forum and it was a great opportunity for a round table discussion on important issues facing our farmers.

Father’s love for the farm was obvious

R0013211176

T

he snow was gone from our long lane, and it had settled into deep ruts of mud which wouldn’t completely dry up into the early summer. Thick bush on either side of the lane stopped the sun, and it was one of the last places on the farm to give up the snows of winter. Walking home from the Northcote School that time of year, we had to walk down the centre of the lane to miss the mud in the deep ruts. That day I could smell a difference in the air. Mud had a special smell to me, one I wasn’t particularly fond of. But I knew it was also the smell of spring, one of my favourite times of the year. And so, that day on the way home from school, I knew there would be other changes too around the farm. Father would be pleased that the barnyard had cleared of snow, and the cows could graze on dry land. He would never tolerate any of the farm animals

MARY COOK Mary Cook’s Memories wallowing around in mud, and often I saw him move them from one place to another just to keep them on drier land. As I came out of the the lane, I could see patches of snow still here and there on the TwentyAcre Field that separated our farm from the Thoms’s house. It would have to be completely dry before the planting. I neared the swing gate and then I saw Father. He was leaning on the fence that circled the barnyard – most unusual for him at that time of day. He was wearing what we called his “between winter and summer” hat. It was more of a cap, with lugs that he didn’t bother to tuck up, but just

let them dangle around his ears like flapping wings. Father waved at me and I waved back and when I got within a few yards from him he told me to leave my school bag near the gate as he had something to show me in the barn. Goose eggs, maybe? Or a new litter of kittens that appeared as regular as clockwork? But no, Father wouldn’t be excited enough about either to meet me at the gate. He took me by the hand, as if I didn’t know where the barn was. I felt the warmth and the roughness of a hand that had only known hard work and long hours, but I felt a comfort too. He took me to the farthest

end of the barn, past the stalls of where the cows were kept, and into the darkest crevices of the barn at the very south end, never letting go of my hand. I could smell the fresh hay that had been mounded in the corner, thrown down from the hayloft above. Father said nothing, just leaned over the low stall boards, and let me adjust my eyes to the darkness, and then I saw what Father had taken me into the barn for. “Would you look at that,” he said so softly I could barely make out what he was saying, and I could hear a wonder in his voice. And there in the corner of that small stall was one of our ewes, and beside her two newly born lambs, their wool still damp from their birth. One was wobbling on legs that looked like little white sticks, and the other curled up beside its mother, two tiny bundles of white fluff. See THE MIRACLE Page 18

Frozen dinner

The miracle of birth and spring come together on the farm

Fresh flavours

Continued from page 16

We leaned into the stall for the longest time, saying nothing. The mother sheep was eyeing us, and the two little lambs, fresh from birth, trying to find their place in this new world they had been born into. I realized Father was still holding my hand. We came out of the barn, and Father said, “Better go to

the house. Mother will be looking for you.� I walked ever so slowly to the back door, thinking about what I had just seen, and even though I was very young, I knew again why my father so loved his farm. Why every inch, first settled three generations before him, would always be his haven. I remember, as if it were yesterday, looking up to the sky that day and thanking whoever, or whatever was up

e are up to four calves now. Each time one is born we lure them into the barn with their mother and shut them up into their own private pen so they can get to know each other better. Some calves need more help than others in locating the mother’s udder and discovering what it holds. Two of our newborn calves have needed a shot of selenium to get them going. The soil on

suckle. While you’re waiting for the selenium to kick in, the calf still needs the valuable mother’s first milk, or colostrum. If it doesn’t get some in the first twenty-four hours, it won’t thrive. So you really need that cow to be in a small, contained space where you can get at her. Some of our cows will just stand to be milked. Others will try to kick you. Get in the pen with Ginger and her newborn calf and you’ll be lucky to get out alive. She tried to fling me with her head like a bull in the ring. She must have had a bad experience before she came to this farm because she has always been extremely suspicious of humans.

PET OF THE WEEK My name Bueller. I just had my first birthday. I am a very energetic Weshie. I love playing with my human sister Rachel and brother Bogdan. I always have time to snuggle.

they return, their legs dirty past their knees with mud. They sniff the calves awake and rouse them from their resting place. Dono the bull tries one more time to mount Ginger. She gives him a kick and starts walking back up to the barnyard. When she gets to the house fence she stops and stares at me in the window. I wave. She turns to see the white-faced cow approaching and follows her with her gaze. I guess she realized they do know each other after all. There are no intruders here. The calves trot alongside their mothers. I’m glad the coyotes left when we sold our sheep. Hopefully that cougar whose pawprints I saw doesn’t like veal. Six more cows to go this calving season, including Big Betty. I don’t even think they are all looking pregnant but you never know; some of them, like Betty, carry it well. dianafisher1@gmail.com theaccidentalfarmwife.blogspot. com

Meet Mikka (ID# A176754), a sweet and lovable little puggle just waiting for a forever home of her very own. Mikka loves car rides and would enjoy accompanying you on all of the adventures that life has to offer! She thrives on predictability and would do best in a family with kids who are eight and older. She is still a little unsure of other dogs but could live with a very polite and respectful dog. Mikka, who is 10, would love to stay active to help her shed some of her winter weight to get back her girlish figure. She’d do best in a detached home as she tends to enjoy singing when alone or bored. For more information on Mikka and all the adoptable animals, stop by the OHS at 245 West Hunt Club Rd. Check out our website at www. ottawahumane.ca to see photos and descriptions of the animals available for adoption.

A microchip can help your pet get home safe Each month, hundreds of lost stray animals arrive at the OHS. Sadly, many have no identification, which makes it difficult for shelter staff to find their owners. A microchip provides a permanent means of pet identification that will not fade or be lost over time. The microchip, about the size of a grain of rice, is implanted under the skin and is virtually painless. 0409.R0013213202

in circles for a minute or two, then separated and wandered off to check on their young. Just then, Dono the bull decided to sidle up and try to dance with Ginger. The poor girl just gave birth two weeks ago, so she had to keep shaking him off. Talk about exhausting. Her tongue was practically hanging out, she was so tired. It’s plus 5 as I write this, and the sun is shining. The cows have just taken their first walk across the field to the pasture. They haven’t done that since before the snow came. I watch as they pause to nibble on the pine tree as they pass by. Then they continue ambling on their way, following the exact same crooked path as last year. There is a high spot in the back corner of the first field. That is where they leave all four calves, in the sun. The mothers continue on their way to check out the pasture. I don’t know what they think they will find there at this time of year. A few minutes later

our two-hundred acres of Eastern Ontario is lacking in this particular mineral, and that often results in a new animal that does not have the instinct t o

After a couple days the Farmer needs to put an elastic on the bull calves. Again, this would be impossible if the calf was outside. Just try to catch a young, springy calf. Good luck with that. After five days to a week, we usually let the mom and baby outside to join the rest of the population. Here is where the fun begins. When any animal joins the barnyard, they get treated like complete newcomers. Even if they were just there a week ago, eating right beside the others. This morning the mooing and bawling drew my attention to the barnyard. The Farmer had just let the whitefaced cow out of the barn with her calf. As I looked out the window, this cow was engaged in some sort of neck-wrestling match with Ginger. It was just like arm wrestling but with the neck. They walked in circles as they tangled. Then, Ginger broke free. She ran around the other side of the hay feeder, the white-faced cow hot on her trail. They chased each other

Each microchip has a unique ID number that can be scanned at shelters and vet clinics. Important information about you and your pet is entered into a national database and can be used to contact you if your lost pet has been found. The OHS holds microchip clinics throughout the year. The cost is $50 — a small price to pay for a lifetime of security. Microchips will not fade or be

Confederation Line East Light Rail Transit (LRT) Extension Ottawa Road 174 / Prescott-Russell County Road 17 Widening Environmental Assessment Studies Open Houses 6 to 9 p.m., presentation at 7 p.m. Monday, April 20, 2015 Community Pentecostal Church 1825 St. Joseph Boulevard Orléans

Tuesday, April 21, 2015 R. J. Kennedy Community Centre Hall A & B, 1115 Dunning Road Cumberland

Thursday, April 23, 2015 Clarence Creek Community Hall 418 Lemay Street Clarence Creek

You are invited to the final Open Houses to review and provide feedback on the recommendations for these two environmental assessment (EA) studies. The Confederation Line East LRT Extension study is following the Transit Projects Assessment Process and the OR174 and Prescott-Russell County Road 17 (CR17) corridor is under the Municipal Class EA process for a Schedule ‘C’ project.

Line a muffin pan with paper liners and set it aside. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the butter until it’s creamy. Gradually beat in the sugar until it’s well combined. Beat in the eggs, one at a time. Add the vanilla and beat it until fluffy. Gradually beat in the flour mixture, alternating with milk, until it’s just smooth. Stir in the rhubarb. Using an ice cream scoop or large

spoons, scoop the batter into the prepared muffin pan, filling each cup about 3/4 full. Bake in a 180 C (350 F) oven for 20 to 22 minutes, or until a tester inserted in the centre comes out clean. Let it cool in the pan on a baking rack for five minutes, then remove the cupcakes onto the rack and let them cool completely. For the icing, beat the cream cheese and butter with an electric mixer in a medium bowl until it’s smooth. Beat in the jam, then add the icing sugar and milk, and beat until it’s very smooth. Spread the icing over the cooled cupcakes (or use a piping bag). If you’d like, drizzle a bit of strawberry jam (thinned with a bit of water), over the icing. Store the cupcakes in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to three days. Foodland Ontario

This weeks puzzle answers in next weeks issue

Here’s How It Works: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20 Patience is a virtue you must have this week, Aries. Others may not be able to maintain your pace, so exercise patience with those who need it. TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21 Share your thoughts and feelings about a particular project wtth others, Taurus. The people closest to you will provide just the support you need to move forward. GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21 Embrace the competitive nature of a coworker this week, Gemini. This person might just motivate you to reach heights you have yet to reach, and this may lead to a promotion at work. CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22 Cancer, a heart-to-heart talk with a loved one has you feeling confident as you move forward. Embrace this chance to communicate for the opportunity it truly is. LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23 Leo, allow someone close to you to enjoy his or her space this week. Find a way to keep busy as this special someone does some soulsearching. VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22 Avoid rushing to judgment on an issue this week, Virgo. Rather than speculating on the “whys” and “how comes,” wait until you can get some solid facts.

LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23 Luck is on your side this week, Libra. Make the most of this lucky streak and invite others to join in your fortune in the weeks to come. SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22 Scorpio, lend a helping hand to a loved one who could use some words of encouragement. Your efforts will be both effective and very much appreciated. SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21 Sagittarius, anxiety about starting a new chapter in life is normal. Fear of the unknown can worry anyone, but look forward to all of the positive changes that are in store. CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20 Capricorn, thinking outside of the box comes easily to you. Although others may scoff at your unconventional ways, you always get the job done and this week is no different. AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18 Aquarius, peer pressure abounds this week, but you needn’t worry about succumbing to it. You like to march to the beat of your own drum, and others look to you as a leader. PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20 Pisces, you may need to take an unusual approach to get things done this week. Don’t be afraid to be aggressive. 0409
