The Buckeyes Have It It's the fifth week of the season, and the Ohio State Buckeyes find themselves in a situation they're not familiar with: They're in danger of losing. To the Hoosiers, no less. Ezekiel Elliott, running back for the scarlet and gray, has the answer. He runs for 274 yards on 23 carries, including touchdown runs of 55, 65 and 75 yards, before watching from the sideline as Indiana tries in vain to answer back. Moments later, the Buckeyes run off the field, fingers pointing to the sky. They came onto the field ranked No. 1 in the nation and they ran off the field in the same position. It's nothing ne w to the Buckeyes. In fact, they've
run off the field No. 1 as often as any team in the nation, and by the time you read this, more times than any other program in history. This week finds the Buckeyes on top of The Associated Press Top 25 Poll for the 101st time, tied with Oklahoma for the best ever. Yes, there are other polls. There's the Coaches Poll. The Coaches Poll is nothing but a council of sanctimonious former bench riders who call in plays until they don't. CNN somehow matters in their equation, so I'm already thinking it's suspect. Like I really care if Wolf Blitzer thinks Ball State is displaying game control and might crack the top 20 this week if they try. But I'd take the Coaches Poll over the alternative, that BCS Computer Robot Poll. Computer polls are the definite worst. It's not that I'm against technology. I am, but it's not that ... it's

just that I have scars. It seems like yesterday ... the Nut Swamp Elementary Science Fair. There I was, a can of baking soda in hand, about to drop it into a glass of orange food-colored 7Up strategically hidden within a mound of clay made up to look like a mountain. It was to be a volcano, a glorious volcano. The teachers came over. It was to be my moment of triumph ... but no. They stop next to my table and start to study Brad Mascott's display instead. Brad had a shoebox laid on its side, with the top converted into a keyboard. There was a slot cut on top of the box. "It's a computer," he announced. "Ohhhh!" said the teachers. They gave him the Best in Show. I cried foul. "He doesn't even have FOOD COLORING! OR BAKING SODA!" But it was no use. Times had changed at Nut Swamp. Technology — in this case, an empty Reebok box —

was here to stay. The volcano era was over. Anyway, those polls are jokes. If you want a poll you can argue over, you need to leave it to the expert nonexperts. Leave it to the AP Poll. An old-fashioned poll, comprised of 65 full-time sportswriters and broadcasters who drove to the game in a forest-green GMC truck while smoking Swisher Sweets. Those are the guys you want picking a champion, believe me. And that's the poll that says Ohio State has been the best, for the longest ... or at least since the FDR administration. Say what you want about THE Ohio State University ... just make sure you talk about them like the winners they most often are. Who can argue the facts?

NO PROVISION FOR SOCIAL SECURITY COST-OF-LIVING ADJUSTMENT IN 2016 With consumer prices down over the past year, monthly Social Security and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits for nearly 65 million Americans will not automatically increase in 2016. The Social Security Act provides for an automatic increase in Social Security and SSI benefits if there is an increase in inflation as measured by the Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W). The period of consideration includes the third quarter of the last year a cost-ofliving adjustment (COLA) was made to the third quarter of the current year. As determined by the
Bureau of Labor Statistics, there was no increase in the CPI-W from the third quarter of 2014 to the third quarter of 2015. Therefore, under existing law, there can be no COLA in 2016. Other adjustments that would normally take effect based on changes in the national average wage index also will not take effect in January 2016. Since there is no COLA, the statute also prohibits a change in the maximum amount of earnings subject to the Social Security tax, as well as the retirement earnings test exempt amounts. These amounts will remain unchanged in 2016. The Department of Health and Human Services
has not yet announced Medicare premium changes for 2016. Should there be an increase in the Medicare Part B premium, the law contains a “hold harmless� provision that protects approximately 70 percent of Social Security beneficiaries from paying a higher Part B premium, in order to avoid reducing their net Social Security benefit. Those not protected include higher income beneficiaries subject to an income-adjusted Part B premium and beneficiaries newly entitled

THREE DEGREES MMC GIVES DONATION
2015 CENTRALIA BPW BOSS OF THE YEAR AWARD Melissa Webster of One Hope United was awarded Boss of the Year by the Centralia Business and Professional Women Monday, October 19. This special honor was given during the Greater
Centralia Chamber of Commerce Business after hours hosted by Centralia Manor and Centralia Estates. Pictured at right is Melissa Webster.
RED CROSS ENCOURAGES BLOOD DONATIONS BEFORE HOLIDAYS The American Red Cross encourages eligible donors to give blood before the holiday season is in full swing. Blood donations often decline from Thanksgiving to New Year’s Day when holiday festivities pull people away from their donation appointments. This often causes a drop in the blood available for patients. Donations are needed in the weeks leading up to the holidays to help offset this seasonal decline. Blood donor Kathy Steckly Neuschwander’s father gave blood for years. She always saw him wear his pin when he reached his next gallon – about 12 gallons total. When he was diagnosed with leukemia, she and her family learned firsthand how important blood donations could be around the holidays. “He passed away in 1994
from leukemia and needed a blood transfusion so we could have one more Thanksgiving together,” she said. “My brother and sister were able to come home from the East Coast for this. I can now say I am wearing his three-gallon pin.” Donors with all blood types are needed, and especially those with types O negative, B negative, A negative and AB blood. To make an appointment to donate blood, download the free Red Cross Blood Donor App from app stores, visitredcrossblood. org or call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767). Donors can now use the Blood Donor App to access their donor card and view vital signs from previous donations. Upcoming blood donation opportunities are listed below.

The camp is being retired November 6-8, 2015, and GSSI would like to invite everyone who loves Girl S c out i n g a n d C a mp Whispering Oaks to come and enjoy the weekend’s festivities and celebrate the wonderful memories the camp has provided to Girl Scouts over the years.

The mission of Girl Scouting states: Girl Scouting builds girls of courage, confidence, and character who make the world a better place. Girl Scouts is the world's preeminent organization dedicated solely to girls - all girls - where, in an accepting and nurturing environment, girls build character and skills for success in the real world. In partnership with committed adults, girls develop qualities that will serve them all their
lives — like strong values, social conscience, and conviction about their own potential and self-worth. Today’s Girl Scouts not only enjoy camping and crafts, but they also explore math and science and learn about diversity, good citizenship, leadership and teamwork. Girl Scouting is the place where girls experience the fun, friendship and power of girls together. Girl Scouting has inspired more than 50 million girls and women since its founding in 1912. Girl Scouts of Southern Illinois is a not-for-profit organization supported by various United Ways throughout the region. Girl Scouts is a Proud Partner of United Way.

Egg-sellent Recipes Eggs are amazing when you think about it. We depend on them in so many ways; we like them cooked nearly any way, but especially in the morning. My family likes them scrambled, baked, fried, in omelettes — let's face it — any way they can get them. Some of my favorite egg recipes are below.
Scrambled Eggs Deluxe 4 large eggs 1 T. water 1/8 tsp. ground white pepper
1 T. butter 2 tsp. red-salmon or golden caviar
Into medium-size bowl, crack and open each egg at broad end, keeping rest of shell intact. Rinse shells, drain, and set upright in 4 egg cups. Add water and pepper to eggs and beat until well mixed. In skillet, melt butter over medium heat until it begins to sizzle. Pour egg mixture into skillet and cook until it begins to set on bottom. Draw tip of pancake turner across bottom of skillet, forming large, soft curds of egg. Continue to cook just until eggs are thickened but still moist. Remove from heat. With a teaspoon, spoon scrambled eggs into each shell. Top with caviar. Makes 2 servings.
Ramp-and-Potato Egg Scramble 6 small (about 3/4 lb.) red potatoes 6 large eggs 1/3 cup water 1/4 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. ground black pepper 2 T. butter or margarine 1/2 cup chopped ramps (white bulbs and green tops)
In steamer or 4-quart saucepan with wire rack, steam potatoes over boiling water until just tender, about 30 minutes. Drain and cool potatoes until easy to handle. Cut potatoes into 3/4-inch chunks. In small bowl, beat eggs, water, salt, and pepper until blended. In 10-inch skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add potatoes. Cook 3 to 5 minutes, until lightly browned, turning potatoes occasionally with pancake turner. Add ramps and cook a few seconds longer. Pour egg mixture into skillet. Stir from edge toward center of skillet until eggs begin to set. Cover and cook a few minutes longer, until eggs are just set. Makes 6 servings.
Summer Garden Quiche 6 large eggs 1 pint heavy cream 1/2 tsp. salt 1/4 tsp. ground white pepper Pinch of dried basil Pinch of dried thyme leaves 1/2 cup sliced fully-cooked, smoked garlic sausage or diced ham
1/4 cup chopped sweet green pepper 1/4 cup chopped onion 1/4 cup chopped tomato 1/4 cup sliced fresh mushrooms 2/3 cup shredded Gruyere, Jarlsberg, or Swiss cheese
Heat oven to 350°F. Grease only bottom of 9- or 10-inch quiche dish. In medium-size bowl, mix eggs, cream, salt, pepper, basil, and thyme until well blended. In greased dish, lightly toss meat, green pepper, onion, tomato, and mushrooms until mixed. Sprinkle with cheese. Pour egg mixture over vegetables and meat. Bake quiche 40 minutes, or until golden brown. The quiche is done when knife inserted in center comes out clean. Let quiche stand 10 minutes on wire rack before serving. Makes 4 to 6 servings.
Baked Eggs
Parking Available Behind The Recreation Complex $2.00 / Car
Heat oven to 325°F. Grease individual ramekins or custard cups, or a shallow 8-inch baking dish. Break 1 or 2 eggs into each ramekin, or as many as 12 into the baking dish. For each egg, add 1 T. milk, cream, broth, or seasoned tomato sauce. Season lightly with freshly ground pepper or herbs. Bake eggs 12 to 20 minutes depending upon desired doneness and number of eggs in dish: 12 minutes for 1 egg in custard cup to 20 minutes for 12 eggs in baking dish. *** If you have a favorite recipe and want to share it with us, just send it in c/o The Shopper's Weekly, P.O.

The B enghazi Select Committee Hearings were held last Thursday. Some called it a hearing, but personally, I thought it was more like an 11-hour food fight by a bunch of badly behaved second graders, both Republicans and Democrats. I stayed tuned to most of it waiting for the grown ups to take over, but those of you that watched along with me already know it didn't happen. The first thought I had just before the hearings were called to order by Trey Gowdy, Chairman of the Committee, was how would Hillary Clinton lie her way out of this one about sending Susan Rice out on three major network Sunday morning talk shows to tell the American People that what happened was an out of hand protest over a video, when she knew all the time it was a terrorist attack on the outpost in Benghazi that left Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans dead. Finally, after two weeks the truth came out!!! But most of us with half a brain already knew it! As Gowdy made his opening remarks, Hillary Clinton flipped through her notes, prepared by her staff, eyes down and at times started writing. Her typical arrogance prevailed. After that, Elijah Cummings (D-MD) started his rhetoric. It didn't take me long to realize why this committee hadn't made progress (less the information, e.g., emails, etc. that were requested by the GOP). Cummings turned the hearing into a three ring political circus in the very beginning. He was off and running, attacking GOP Presidential candidates and the Republican Party as a whole. It was certainly not the time for this kind of statement. Cummings, along with every Democrat on the committee, sit on that committee for one reason and one reason only, in my opinion, and that is to get Hillary Clinton elected. It's too bad he and t he ot her Democrats aren't there to get to the truth. But stepping it back, in Cummings' opening remarks, he lied more than once and later had to go back and correct his falsehood involving a statement McCarthy made. As for the Republicans, they were as bad as the Democrats with a little less hostility. Partisan politics came to life in the Benghazi Select Committee hearings. So what did I learn after 11 hours of BS? Something I
already knew, as many did, and I learned some new things: Hillary Clinton, along with Obama, was responsible for the failed policy in Libya which resulted in the death of four Americans. On Sept. 11, 2012 these men — fathers, sons, husbands, grandsons, uncles, brothers and friends — made the decision to step out and tried to make things better, and our government let them down. I learned that the day before the hearings started last week, the committee received Chris Stevens' emails — three years after the attack. I learned that the Obama administration (not just Clinton) might have been responsible for putting Susan Rice on the talk shows to lie; after all, it was just 56 days before an election. I learned that Ms. Clinton, then Secretary of State, did not respond to Ambassador Stevens' numerous requests for help prior to the attack. I learned that when Chris Stevens first became the Ambassador he had 35 security people; at the time of the attack, he had only 9. I learned that the night of Sept. 11, 2012 Hillary Clinton emailed her daughter and said there were two Americans killed at the outpost in Benghazi by an al Queda-like group. She told her family one thing and the American people something else. I was reminded again that she, Obama and their cronies in Washington sat in the White House Situation Room and watched the massacre of four brave Americans as they died one by one in real time and did nothing about it. And let me remind all that there were some Americans that lived to tell the story that said they were told to stand down while terrorists poured through those front gates. Terrorists, not protesters. And of course, there was a lot more. In many cases, questions on legitimate issues were raised but not pursued. For example, regarding Hillary's "turned over" emails, especially regarding Benghazi, the question was asked, "Hillary, why is it that in all of 2011, over 700 emails were about Benghazi, but in all of 2012, the year of the attack, only 67 Benghazi emails were turned over?" The Hillary response, obviously avoiding the real question, was, and I paraphrase: "I don't email much. I use the phone, memos and face to face
meetings." Really? No answer for the dramatic drop in Benghazi emails and because of no follow up questioning by the committee, we still have no answer to that question! In the end, did Hillary answer the questions? Yes. Were they complete? No. Are we prepared to handle the next Benghazi? No, we aren't. Do I feel the focus was on Benghazi? The answer is no, it was — as I said earlier — like a three ring circus. Do I feel that Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama are solely responsible? I absolutely do. A final thought on this committee: In my opinion the Democrats are interested in covering up for Hillary and getting her elected. The Republicans are interested in the truth but are also interested in hanging Hillary. But in Hillary's famous words, "What difference, at this point, does it make?" For many it doesn't, but for me and many others, my major concern and theirs is Hillary Clinton is running for President. To me that makes a huge difference. The last thing I want is an untrustworthy person in the Oval Office. And that would be Hillary Clinton. So on to other pressing issues. • Vice President Joe Biden ended his 82-day speculation of will he or won't he run for President. He won't. • Ben Carson took Donald Trump in the newest Iowa polls. Carson is at 28%, Trump is at 19%. • The next Republican debate is Wednesday night, October, 28. • Paul Ryan will run for Speaker of the House. In closing, here is some food for thought in the words of Ben Carson: "Common sense is a lot more valuable than political experience." And to that I say Amen! Until next week.

EAGLE LIFE
Ministries by: Cliff Sanders
Good Luck or Good God How many times has somebody wished you good luck? As a follower of Jesus Christ, I don’t believe in luck — I believe in the Lord. The Merriam Webster Dictionary defines luck as “chance, fortune, to prosper or succeed through chance or good fortune, to come upon something desirable by chance.” Many who believe in luck become involved in various forms of gambling. One of the signs of the decline of a nation is when the government sanctions and promotes gambling to fund their programs. I constantly see individuals who make weekly and even daily circuits of convenience stores to buy lottery tickets hoping they will be the lucky one to strike it rich. Years ago, I knew an elderly man who constantly told me, “Pastor, when my ship comes in, I’m going to build you a new church.” I guess his ship never came in. The great come-

dian, Will Rodgers, observed, “The harder I work, the luckier I get.” Luck repudiates faith in the favor of a good God. “The blessing of the Lord it makes rich.” (Proverbs 10:22) Luck repudiates the importance of character as a foundation of prosperity. “Beloved, I wish above all things that you may prosper and be in health, even as your soul prospers.” (III John 2) Luck repudiates the principle of hard work and saving. (Proverb 10:4) Luck repudiates trust in God to meet ones needs. (Philippians 4:19) Luck promotes covetousness which is the root of all evil. (Exodus 20:17; Acts 20:33; I Timothy 6:9-10) Luck repudiates God’s principles of prosperity. (Luke 6:38) Luck hopes for good fortune. Believers seek the favor of God knowing that God is a good God. Apply these three keys to having the favor of God in your life found in Psalm 37. In Psalm 37:3-5, we have these three keys, “Trust in the
Lord, delight in the Lord, and commit your way unto the Lord.” The object of these three keys is the Lord. Luck is a false god that relies on random chance. The Lord is the true and living God who is good, holy, and faithful. David declared, “The Lord is my shepherd I shall not want.” (Psalm 23:1) These three keys bring one into a personal relationship with the good, good Father. “TRUST in the Lord and do good; so shall you dwell in the land and verily you shall be fed,” (Psalm 37:3) Don’t trust in luck, trust in the Lord. He is faithful and true. He is all-powerful, all knowing, and everywhere present. Jesus taught us not to worry but to trust in the Lord. (Matthew 6:24-34) “DELIGHT yourself also in the Lord; and he shall give you the desires of your heart.” (Psalm 37:4) Christianity is not a religion but a relationship with the Lord; Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, that infuses one with love, joy, and peace. What a great promise, “He shall give you the desires of your heart.” When one delights themselves in the Lord, His desires and heart become their delight and will. God gives good gifts to his children. (Luke 11:913)
“COMMIT your way unto the Lord . . . and he shall bring it to pass.” (Psalm 37:5) To commit is to surrender. It is to roll everything off your back and shoulder onto the Lord. Every burden, uncertainty, desire, guilt, and sin — roll it on Jesus. At the foot of the cross the Roman soldiers gambled for the seamless robe of Christ. Don’t gamble your eternal soul on luck, put your faith in a sure thing — the finished work of Christ on the cross. “Knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance.” (Romans 2:4) I don’t believe in luck. I believe in the Lord. Shalom, Cliff Sanders Eagle Life Ministries eagleslife8@gmail.com

AVOID HALLOWEEN MAKEUP ALLERGIES AND OTHER REACTIONS
What are the horrors of Halloween? Many might say encountering a gruesome ghoul or a bloodsucking vampire is the most horrific part of Halloween. However, an allergic reaction can be just as scary as ghosts and goblins come Halloween. The candy a child eats, the makeup kids use as part of their costumes or even the costume itself can cause an allergic reaction. Parents and kids need to be careful and exercise their due diligence to avoid possible allergens. Makeup Ac c o rd i n g t o t h e American College of Allerg y, Asthma and Immunology, Halloween makeup can trigger an allergic reaction or symptoms of asthma. Inexpensive makeup may contain preservatives that can cause a rash and swelling of the skin. Formaldehyde is a very common preservative used
in many of these products, but some products labeled “formaldehyde-free” can still cause allergic reactions. Certain makeup is not advisable to use around the mouth or eyes, so be certain to check all packaging for any warnings. Highquality theater makeup may be a better option than the cheap crayon sticks sold at costume stores. In any event, always test makeup on a small area of the skin we l l i n a d v an c e of Halloween. If a rash or any abnormality occurs, do not use the makeup. Costumes Costumes can induce an allergic reaction as well. If costumes are older and packed away in a basement or attic, trapped dust and dust mites can make it difficult for those with allergies or asthma to breathe. Accessories used for many common Halloween costumes also may cause reactions. Crowns, magic wands and faux jewelry that uses metals like nickel may cause rashes and irritation. Beware of nickel and cobalt, which can trigger allergic reactions. Decorations Those who want to create a spooky environment at their Halloween parties should be advised that fog machines can trigger asthma attacks in some people. It’s best to check
with party attendants commercially produced before firing up the fog candy and chocolate bars machine. are manufactured in factories that also process peanuts and other tree nuts, Edible Treats Food allergies abound in so exercise caution with children and adults. Many treats. Baked goods may
pencils and small toys. Halloween should be an enjoyable day for the young and the young at heart. This beloved holiday can be made safer by avoiding common allergy triggers.

VARIOUS WAYS YOU CAN PUT PUMPKINS TO USE Few items signal the fall harvest season more than the bright, orange pumpkins that dot fields and liven up displays outside of homes and businesses. Come fall, many pumpkins are turned into grinning jack-olanterns just in time for Halloween. But there are many
other uses for pumpkins as well. Pumpkins are believed to have originated in North America. Early Native Americans relied on pumpkins as a source of food that helped them survive long winters. Pumpkins could be roasted, baked, boiled, and dried, and they were eaten and used as
medicine. Pumpkin blossoms were added to stews. The shells of the pumpkins could be dried and used as eating and storage vessels. While pumpkins may now be symbolic of Halloween, the following are a handful of additional ways this versatile fruit can
be put to use.
Beauty Regimen Pumpkins contain a number of essential vitamins and minerals that can help replenish the skin. Pumpkin purĂŠe can be mixed with honey, aloe vera gel, olive oil, and a bit of cornmeal
Wednesday, October 28, 2015 to create an exfoliating mask for the face or body. Pumpkin also can be used to rejuvenate dry or tired skin from cold weather. Honey, pumpkin and yogurt can be mixed together and used to condition hair. Let the mixture sit for 15 to 20 minutes, and then wash it out and shampoo. Foods & Beverages Pumpkin purÊe is the basis for many tasty, pumpkin-infused treats. PurÊe can be used in pies, cakes, muffins, breads, and many additional foods. Pumpkin purÊe also may be found in certain beverages, such as smoothies and shakes. A bit of spiced purÊe may appear as flavoring in teas and coffees. Roasted pumpkin seeds make a healthy treat. Boil the seeds a few minutes before draining. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick spray and put seeds in a single layer. Bake at 400°F for 20 minutes. Allow to cool and serve. Pumpkin wines and beers are popular as well. There are many recipes for developing sweet, fermented beverages, which tend
to be especially popular in the fall. The â&#x20AC;&#x153;gutsâ&#x20AC;? of the pumpkin can be simmered along with aromatics and other vegetables to create a vegetable stock perfect for soups and broths. Decorations Pumpkins can also add to oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home dĂŠcor during fall. Pumpkins can be carved for Halloween displays, hollowedout to hold tealights or used as centerpieces. Larger pumpkins may be used as natural flower pots for mums or other seasonal floral displays. They can be hollowed-out and used as bowls to serve favorite soups and dips. Use a hollowed, small pumpkin as a natural aromatic candle holder. Cut holes in the sides to vent the exhaust. Rub aromatic spices, such as cloves, nutmeg, allspice, cinnamon, and vanilla bean, on the inside of the pumpkin. Insert a beeswax candle in the bottom of the pumpkin and let it send inviting aromas into the air.

Who Will Care for Pets When Seniors Can’t? DEAR PAW’S CORNER: Can you address the ongoing problem of cats that are being abandoned or released outside to fend for themselves when their Mom or Dad are placed in an assisted-living facility, nursing home or pass away, and the family is not interested in doing what is right for the beloved pet of their family member. What options are available for this pet? — Rita & Michael, via email D E A R R I TA & MICHAEL: Definitely, and it’s a bigger problem than many realize. Many adult children don’t anticipate assisted care for their parents or end-of-life planning for them. The situation is difficult no matter what, and too often, pets are forgotten as families try to find solutions.
What options are out there? Just a few: • Plan ahead. Pet owners themselves (at all ages) should consider the “whatif ” scenarios and have a plan in place for their pet’s care. Make a will, discuss a pet’s care with family members and put your wishes in writing. • Choose a pet “god parent.” Ask a reliable family member or friend if they would commit to caring for your pet should it become necessary. • Look for pet-friendly senior care facilities. It may take a bit of searching, but some facilities allow wellbehaved smaller pets. • Contact a pet-friendly senior advocacy group. An advocate can help with some of the most emotionally charged aspects of senior care and end-of-life planning, including pet care. Some nonprofits can be found here: www.insideeldercare.com/publicpolicy/6-senior-care-consumer-advocacy-groupsto-know/ • Contact the pet’s veterinarian. Advice and as-

by Samantha Weaver • It was Pulitzer Prizewinning American journalist, author and historian Garry Wills who made the following sage observation: "Politicians make good company for a while just as children do -- their self-enjoyment is contagious. But they soon exhaust their favorite subject -- themselves." • According to ancient Egyptian mythology, humans were created
ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You might be growing impatient with a situation that seems to resist efforts to resolve it. But staying with it raises the odds that you’ll find a way to a successful resolution. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Travel and kinship are strong in the Bovine’s aspect this week. This would be a good time to combine the two and take a trip to see family members for a preholiday get-together. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) A colleague could make a request you’re not comfortable with. If so, say so. Better to disappoint someone by sticking with your principles than disappoint yourself if you don’t. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) The Moon Child’s ability to adapt to life’s ebbs and flows helps you deal with the changes that you might confront at work or at home, or both. Things settle down by the week’s end. LEO (July 23 to August 22) It’s a good week for Leos and Leonas to get some long-outstanding business matters resolved. Then go ahead and plan a funfilled family getaway weekend with the mate and the cubs. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) A possible workplace change seems promising. If you decide to look into it, try not to form an opinion on just a small part of the picture: Wait for the full image to develop. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) A newcomer helps keep things moving. There might be some bumpy mo-
ments along the way, but at least you’re heading in the right direction. You win praise for your choices. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) You could be pleasantly surprised by how a decision about one thing opens up an unexpected new option. Also, assistance on a project could come from a surprising source. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) With more information to work with, you might now be able to start the process that could lead to a major change. Reserve the weekend for family and friends. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) This could be a good time to begin gathering information that will help you turn that long-held idea into something substantive. A personal matter might need extra attention. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) That new challenge might carry some surprises. But you should be able to handle them using what you already know. That new supporter should be there to lend assistance. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Someone might be trying to disguise his or her true motives. But the perceptive and perspicacious Pisces should have little or no problem finding the truth in all that foggy rhetoric. BORN THIS WEEK: You can always rely on your people skills to help you find solutions to problems others often give up on. © 2015 King Features Synd., Inc.
from the tears of the sun. • The Pizza Hut restaurant chain got started when two brothers borrowed $600 from their mom. • You might be surprised to learn that, just as there is a market for used cars, there is a market for used roller coasters. With the skyrocketing costs of construction, it can be cheaper to disassemble, move and reassemble a
Wednesday, October 28, 2015
coaster than to build one from scratch. • In the early 1900s, if you called someone a "geek" it didn't mean that person was nerdy. A geek back then was a carnival wild man. • Iconic songstress Madonna once worked as a coat-check girl at the Russian Tea Room. • If you weren't a fan of math in elementary school, it might comfort you to know that students have been struggling longer than you probably realize.
