Is there anything that will stop Donald Trump, especially the last attempt by Marco Rubio? The answer is no. I found it interesting Sund ay mor ning on MSNBC that Al Sharpton was elaborating on Rubio's comment about Trump being a con man. These negative digs are coming from a man (Al Sharpton) that has some personal issues, enough so I continue to wonder how he stays out of jail over taxes. I found myself continuously wanting to remind those — Republicans and Democrats — that talk about Trump the con man that Barack Obama had no experience in the business sector, had little political experience. The only thing he could do was give a great speech. I've got to give him that. Obama's whole political career was won by default, starting with the Illinois Senate. How was he elected? Easy, he was chosen by the I l l i n o i s D e m o c r at i c machine and it spun from there. Then he continued with super delegates success. I touched on that briefly last week. Yet no one called Barack Obama a con man. In comes Hillary Clinton. Super delegates will keep her on top along with the DNC and liberal media. She started the primary season up more than 400 delegates over Bernie because of super delegates. Not that I
like what Bernie Sanders stands for, but I do think he's real and sincere, and he's getting a bad deal all the way around. Last week I really didn't appreciate it when, during a rally for Hillary, speaker Bill Clinton had a veteran escorted out because he asked a question about a lie Hillary told over the caskets of those killed at Benghazi. The kicker was, the man ordered out by draft dodger Bill Clinton was a veteran who served two tours of duty in Iraq. Of course the Hillary supporters cheered. It kind of tells you what's important to many Hillary supporters, but certainly not all of them.
even three months ago. At this point anything can happen. Last Sunday Congresswoman Tulsi G a b b a rd , a v e t e r a n (D-Hawaii), announced she resigned from the DNC as Vice Chair so she could support Bernie Sanders, To me that speaks loud and clear!
On to Super Tuesday, March 1. If Trump takes it — and the numbers show he will — as well as March 15, it's pretty much over. In my opinion there will be three left standing: Trump, Rubio and Cruz. If none get the delegates they need then it's possible we're l o ok i ng at an op e n Republican Convention, On to South Carolina. and that could backfire on Hillary had a blowout; 74% the GOP. carried her.

EAGLE LIFE
Ministries by: Cliff Sanders
The Will of God Followers of Christ do not believe in luck; they believe in the Lord. They do not believe in karma; they believe that the creator, who is all-powerful, all knowing, and everywhere present, has a plan for this world and for each of His children. True believers seek to know and do the will of God for their life. David’s prayer is a clarion call for all who would know and do the will of God. “Teach me to do your will, for you are my God, may your good Spirit lead me on level ground.” (Psalm 143:10 NIV) Here are some steps to help us learn and deploy the will of God in our life. PUT JESUS FIRST IN YOUR LIFE. You will never discover and implement God’s will until you make Jesus the utmost Lord of your life. The apostle Paul spent the early years of his life executing his own plans.
W W
But Paul had a Damascus road conversion where he fell from his high horse and called Jesus “Lord.” Paul asked, “Who are you, Lord?” He asked Jesus a question that every believer who surrenders to the Lordship of Christ should ask, “Lord, what do you want me to do?” (Acts 5:5-6, 10-16) Have you made Jesus the Savior and Lord of your life? “That if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.” (Romans 10:9) P R E SE N T YOU R BODY TO THE LORD. “Do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit . . . and you are not your own? For you were bought with a price, therefore, glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s.” (I Corinthians 6:18-20) Paul gives us a key in knowing and doing the will of God. It is pre-
senting our bodies to the Lord as “a living sacrifice” and being “transformed by the renewing of your mind.” Then we can “prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.” (Romans 12:1-2) PRAY FOR GOD’S WILL TO BE DONE EACH DAY. Jesus taught us to pray this way in the Lord’s Prayer, “Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.” (Matthew 6:9-13) We have the promise of God, “In all your ways acknowledge Him and He shall direct your paths.” (Proverbs 3:6) God’s Word speaks to those who take time to listen and He listens to those who take the time to pray. PAY ATTENTION TO GOD’S VOICE. God has a plan for your life. (Jeremiah 29:11) Learn what God’s will is by reading and meditating on His Word. James admonishes us to not make our own plans but to seek His will. (James 4:13-17) David asks God to teach him His will. (Psalm 143:10) Pray for wisdom to discern His will. (Ephesians 5:8-10, 15) PARTNER WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT. David prayed, “May your good

Spirit lead me on level ground.” (Psalm 143:10) In the book of Acts we find it was normal to hear the Holy Spirit’s voice and obey His leading. PROSTRATE YOUR SOUL TO THE FATHER’S WILL. In the Garden of Gethsemane, Jesus agonized in prayer, surrendering to the Father’s will. (Matthew 26:36:44) “Nevertheless, not as I will, but as you will.” Surrendering to God’s will brings clarity, peace, and the power of purpose. PURSUING GOD’S WILL BRINGS YOU INTO A SPECIAL RELATIONSHIP WITH THE LORD. There is a stronger bond than your natural born family. Jesus said, “For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven, is my brother and sister and mother.” (Matthew 12:46-50) Consider this joyous promise, “We are witnesses of these things, and so is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who obey Him.” (Acts 5:29-32) Is Jesus your Lord? Then seek to do His will in everything you do. Shalom, Cliff Sanders Eagle Life Ministries eagleslife8@gmail.com

As a kid growing up, Sunday afternoon after church was family time. The table was set with the finest china and linens. It was always fried chicken, mashed potatoes with loads of real butter, white cream gravy, green beans fresh from the garden or home canned, corn on the cob or canned corn, biscuits, and of course, there was dessert: Angel food cake, pecan pie, peach cobbler, apple crisp, again, depending on the season. Today a tradition that has stuck with me is cloth linens and china, but I have to admit, as much as I loved fried chicken and mashed potatoes, it's only on very special occasions these days. Today I still love chicken, but I have found healthy ways to cook it. My, how times have changed. 1/3 cup ketchup 3 T. reduced sodium soy sauce 3 T. sugar 2 T. rice vinegar 1 T. cornstarch 3 tsp. canola oil 1 lb. skinless boneless chicken breasts, cut into 1/2-inch cubes

Making the Most of Cat’s 9 Lives DEAR P AW ’ S CORNER: I’m extremely curious about the average lifespan of cats. Years ago my husband found a stray kitten about 6 weeks old. “Skeezix” lived to be 26 years old until he passed away one night after two strokes. We also rescued a stray we named “Sheba,” and we had her for 25 years (the vet couldn’t believe she’d lived so long), so she was at least 26 or 27 when congestive heart failure took her. My two remaining cats, “Mama” and “Baby,” are about 16 and 19 years old, respectively. We’ve never done any-

thing special in terms of care and feeding. They all have been spayed or neutered, gotten regular veterinary care and lived indoors exclusively. I feed them Dad’s dry cat food, split a can of wet food between them occasionally, and of course a few Whiskas treats every day. Is it normal for cats to have such longevity? — Fay, via email DEAR FAY: Those are amazingly long-lived cats! The average life span of a common housecat is about 15 years, so it’s safe to say that all of your cats have made it well past that mark. Is there a magic formula to help your cats live longer? No one has that, but there are some things that will improve a cat’s life over the long term, and you have done all of them. Regular vet care, keeping cats indoors (away from many dangers and stressors), routine feeding and, of course,

Dude, Retire! I'll never forget the first time I met Peyton Manning. He was on the phone, and I had just snapped a photo of him in the most annoying way possible: I had my trusty Minolta set on the anti-redeye flash setting, the kind where the flash pops over and over again until your subject gets annoyed and stops smiling. And I'll never forget what he said to me: "Dude ... what are you doing?" That's the same day I learned that photographers can't just walk up to the Colts' sideline and stick a camera in their quarterback's face, even with the anti-redeye setting. What can I say? We were both rookies that season. I would later graduate to Kodak, Nikon and Cannon cameras, and Manning would go on to have a pretty decent career, too. The first time I really started paying attention to Manning's career was during his tenure at Tennessee. It's funny to hear people knock his

ation for dinner tonight). After winning the Super Bowl, his gratuitous beer name-dropping aside (no, he wasn't paid to say that, but he does own a share of the brand's beer distributorship in Louisiana, and one surmises he made his money back), his not stating the obvious ... that he was retiring ... was a class move. In doing so (or by not doing so) he kept the focus, rightly, on his team's victory. Shou ld Manning retire? Of course he should. He is playing the most violent game in the world (next to fighting and hurling). He has nothing left to prove, and he leaves world recognized as the best ever at his position. Granted, I would still pick Joe Montana to lead my team if my life depended on it, but I think Manning catches my drift. You don't get chances like this in life — to leave on top — you earn them. If he were to come back next year, rest assured, I'd break out the old Minolta. But this time I'd be the one asking what he was doing, dude.
arm-strength now, because while he was in college, he was a straightup gunslinger of a quarterback. I remember Steve Spurrier taunting him before big games. Nowadays, we all know not to overly criticize college players, ostensibly for the reason that they are kids and amateurs. Over the years, at Indianapolis and Denver, we've had the distinct pleasure of watching Manning all but dominate the league. He wasn't invincible, as his two Super Bowl losses proclaim, but he was the best in the game. He holds every record that matters: wins (200), yards from scrimmage, touchdowns and MVPs. He was the funniest athlete ever to host "Saturday Night Live"; he's made "Omaha" the replacement term for "hike" in backyards across the country; and he gave the chicken Mark Vasto is a veteran parm sandwich its own, sportswriter who lives in long-overdue jingle.

In ad-
dition to two Singer sewing machines, there are thimbles, thread cases and an assortment of numerous other items, all relating to her profession. Because I can't save everything, I need your advice. — Mandy, Tempe, Arizona A: I don't want to needle you, but be very careful when sifting through this estate. Thimbles have become extremely collectible, so you should be aware of certain ones, especially those crafted by James Fenton, Charles Horner, the Simon Brothers, and ones featuring unusual designs such as the "Iles Ventilated Thimble." Because Singer sewing machines made during the 1920s and '30s are plentiful and often priced for less than $150 at local shops, I do not think they are worth keeping. The real value of these machines could, however, be the contents of the drawers. Look for vintage needle cases, because one made by W. Avery & Sons recently sold for $300 at

DIET AND EXERCISE NEEDS CHANGE AS MEN AND WOMEN AGE Maintaining a healthy weight is important at any age. But avoiding being overweight or obese can be particularly crucial for seniors, considering many illnesses are tied to body weight. Maintaining a healthy immune system also can require eating a balanced, nutritionally sound diet. The Geriatric Research, Education, and Clinical Center at Durham Medical Center in Virginia says people need to change how they eat for every decade they reach. Caloric intake should be reduced because individuals are generally moving around less, have less muscle and their metabolic rates decline. People who find that they are having trouble losing weight in their 50s and older may be basing weight-loss goals on calorie recommendations for younger people. One challenging thing about eating less overall is supplementing with more nutrient-rich foods. Older bodies still require similar amounts of protein, vitamins and minerals as younger ones, but older men and women must balance that need with their need to consume less calories. Consuming more fruits, vegetables and lean protein sources, including beans, and choosing whole grains over refined starchy foods can be the key. Watch what you drink, as well. Soft drinks and other sugary beverages may be packed with calories you don’t need. Choose un-
sweetened beverages and opt for water as much as possible. Protect yourself against dehydration, which can be harder to detect as you get older. In addition to modifying food and beverage choices and reducing their calorie intake, seniors should continue to exercise. Healthy eating paired with moderate exercise remains one of the best combinations for healthy weight loss or weight maintenance. The goal is to consume fewer calories and expend more energy. While cardiovascular exercises can be a good way to get the heart pumping and stimulate your metabolic rate, as you age you should perform strength-training and weight-bearing exercises as well. Muscle mass naturally diminishes with age, and according to the Mayo Clinic if you avoid strength exercises you can eventually lose muscle and increase the percentage of fat in your body. Strength training also helps you develop stronger bones,
which can help prevent fractures. In addition, as you gain muscle, your body will begin to burn calories more efficiently, making your time in and out of the gym more productive. Apart from diet and exercise, aging adults may need to consult with their doctors about nutritional supplements. Your body may produce less stomach acid as you get older, making it more difficult to absorb vitamins from food, including vitamin B12 and vitamin D. Aging skin is less able to transform sunlight into the vitamin, which can affect the body’s ability to absorb calcium. Deficiencies in vitamins D and B12 and calcium can result in a number of health conditions. Routine blood work can help pinpoint whether you are deficient in key nutrients. The body’s nutritional and fitness needs change as a person ages. Those uncertain about the lifestyle changes they will need to make should speak with their physicians.

CHILDREN SHARE MORE THAN JUST A CLASSROOM AT SCHOOL School-aged children spend several hours per day in the classroom in close proximity to one another. That proximity means that, in addition to sharing their time in the classroom, students often share their illnesses. Many parents understand that kids may come home from school with more than just homework. Communicable diseases and parasites may accompany kids home, and while every sniffle or fever cannot be prevented, there are ways parents can reduce their child's risk of coming home from school with an ailment passed on by a classmate. The first step toward reducing that risk is understanding some of the more common ailments. Lice Few children survive school without enduring at least one outbreak of lice. Lice are tiny parasites that feed on the blood of their hosts. Head lice are about two to three millimeters in length (about the size of a sesame seed). A female louse can produce between seven and 10 eggs, known as nits, per day. The nits will hatch and repeat the process of the adults. Having lice is not an indication of poor hygiene. It just means you have come into contact with someone with lice and have contracted the parasite. Sharing brushes, pillows, hats, and head-to-head contact with someone who has lice facilitates transmission. Many old wives' tales discuss how to keep lice from getting into the hair. None of these methods are necessarily effective. Should lice climb aboard, it is essential to remove all of the nits and adult lice through careful combing and to reduce the numbers of lice until they die off. In extreme cases, a doctor may recommend a medicated shampoo. Mononucleosis The Mayo Clinic says infectious mononucleosis, commonly shortened to "mono," is known as the kissing disease. Epstein-Barr virus, the virus that causes mono, is transmitted through saliva. It can be spread through kissing, but also by sharing cups and straws or if saliva is expelled through sneezing or coughing. Symptoms of mono include fatigue, sore throat,
13
The Shoppers Weekly Papers Centralia / Salem Area
fever, swollen lymph nodes, and a soft, swollen spleen. Mono is not often serious and is even less communicable than the common cold. However, it is adviseable to keep a child home from school until symptoms have subsided. There is no specific method to treat mono, but doctors may suggest a combination of bed rest, pain relievers and drinking plenty of water and fruit juices. Oral Herpes There is a lot of confusion about herpes circulating because two similar viruses are commonly mistaken for each other. Most of the cases of oral herpes result from the virus herpes simplex 1, or HSV-1. According to the organization Herpes Online, the oral outbreak of herpes forms cold sores or fever blisters on the lips or inside of the mouth. While these blisters -- and the HSV-1 virus itself -- can be spread through kissing, most young children are diagnosed with oral herpes after they have contracted it through the sharing of utensils. Sometimes parents inadvertently pass herpes on to their kids when they kiss them goodnight. Generally speaking, oral herpes is most contagious when a lesion or blister is present. When scabs have healed and there is no other symptom of the condition, then a person is much less likely to pass the virus to someone else. When a blister is present, the affected person should wash his or her hands frequently and avoid touching the lesion. Strep Throat A child will get strep throat when he or she comes in direct contact with saliva or fluids from the nose of an affected person, says the National Institutes of Health. Strep throat is usually caused by group A streptococcus bacteria. It is most common in children between the ages of five and 15.
Check Out Centralia Manor’s New “Bounce Back” Addition
Once a person comes in contact with the bacteria, he or she may begin to feel sick two to five days later. Chills, a sore throat, trouble moving the neck, and difficulty swallowing are some of the more common symptoms. Because strep can mimic a viral sore throat, most doctors will take a throat culture to confirm diagnosis. Should the bacteria be present, antibiotics will be prescribed for treatment. A doctor will advise when it is safe for a child to return to school. Meningitis Meningitis is the inflammation of the protective membranes covering the brain and spinal cord, known as the meninges. There are five types of meningitis: bacterial, viral, parasitic, fungal, and noninfectious. The severity of the illness and the treatment depends on the cause. The most widely known types of meningitis are bacterial and viral. Both are contagious, but bacterial meningitis can be life-threatening and requires immediate medical attention. Meningitis can be spread through exchange of respiratory and throat secretions. People who have viral meningitis find it is a less severe form and does not become serious so long as their immune system remains strong. Symptoms of a meningitis infection may include a sudden onset of fever, headache and stiff neck. Nausea, vomiting and altered mental status are also symptoms. Samples of blood or cerebrospinal fluid are collected to test for the cause of the meningitis to begin prompt treatment. Spending time in close proximity with other students increases the spread of communicable diseases among students. Knowing the symptoms of various communicable diseases can help parents quickly recognize an ailment.

The effects that cancer treatment can have on a person's skin have long been overlooked. But patients who have suffered through skin rashes and burns will be glad to know that a growing trend in treating cancer focuses on curing both the disease and helping patients maintain their self-esteem and quality of life. A new movement combining oncology and dermatology aims to address both the disease and the potentially negative consequences that rashes, burns and blemishes can produce. "For obvious reasons, the skin, hair, and nails have not been the topmost concerns in oncology -- the most important goal is to treat and cure the cancer," says Mario Lacouture, M.D., who specializes in dermatologic conditions

that result from cancer treatments. "But skin side effects can affect patients' sense of self and their interactions with others. These side effects can lead to costly treatments, affect overall health, and perhaps most significantly, they may require that anticancer treatments be reduced or stopped altogether." Upon receiving a cancer diagnosis, patients concerned about the potential impact that treatment may have on their complexions should discuss their options with their physicians. After initiating such discussions, men and women being treated for cancer can take additional steps to maintain their appearance and quality of life both during and after treatment. • Alter your skin care routine. Upon receiving a cancer diagnosis, patients must make a host of lifestyle adjustments to many things, including to their skin care routines. Intense skin rashes and burns are common side effects of chemotherapy and radiation, and certain side effects are actually an indicator that the treatment is
working. While such consequences can affect patients' self-image, these side effects are entirely manageable. "What many patients do not realize is that most dermatologic side effects are manageable, allowing people to maintain their quality of life and continue their cancer treatments," says Lacouture. Recognizing traditional skin care products' ineffectiveness at combating the dermatologic side effects of cancer treatment during her own battle with the disease, cancer survivor and entrepreneur Lindy Snider began working with dermatologists, oncologists, nurses, and skin care formulators to address the issue, eventually developing Lindi Skin (www.lindiskin.com), a collection of skin care products designed specifically for individuals undergoing treatment for cancer and related disorders. Combining state-ofthe-art technology with innovative natural ingredients, Lindi Skin products include a host of botanical extracts boasting anti-inflammatory, analgesic, anti-

bacterial, and anti-viral properties, while providing a soothing and gentle solution even for those patients with especially sensitive skin. "Tarceva, the medication I take for lung cancer, has played havoc with my skin, which has become unbelievably dry and sensitive," says Phyllis of Coral Gables, FL. "(Lindi Skin) products are the only ones I can use on my face and body. They actually soothe, whereas all others create a burning sensation." • Embrace antioxidants. Often touted as miracle ingredients in a host of foods, antioxidants can be found beyond the dinner table as well. In developing Lindi Skin, Snider and her team designed an exclusive formulation of concentrated botanicals that deliver high levels of beneficial antioxidants to the skin. Known as the LSA Complex(R), this formulation includes Snider's pioneering use of astaxanthin, a powerful antioxidant that is only now beginning to receive widespread recognition for its restorative properties, a decade after Snider began using it in her skin care products. While astaxanthin can relieve the pain and inflammation in the skin that cancer patients often feel, it also can help those suffering from less severe, non-cancer related skin problems, such as sunburn, rosacea, dry skin and UV damage. Skin damage is an often overlooked side effect of cancer treatment. But cancer patients should know that side effects like skin rashes and burns are manageable and don't have to negatively impact selfimage or quality of life.

Stress is a part of life for many men and women. But as prevalent as stress is, many people are unaware of the potentially negative side effects that can result when stress goes untreated. Ac c o r d i n g t o t h e American Psychological Association, chronic stress forces the muscles in the
body to be taut and tense for long periods of time, a guardedness that can make men and women susceptible to stress-related disorders such as migraine headaches. In addition, the APA notes that stress can cause people to hyperventilate, which can trigger panic attacks in those prone to

Behavioral symptoms Stress also can affect behavior, and men and women suffering from stress may act nervously. Nail biting, fidgeting and pacing are among the behavioral symptoms of stress, which may be more noticeable to loved ones or colleagues than the individual exhibiting the symptoms. Some people also may procrastinate and avoid their responsibilities when dealing with stress. Increased use of alcohol and drugs or suddenly smoking more cigarettes also are behavioral symptoms of stress. Men and women concerned about stress should consult their physicians and keep an eye out for any potential warning signs that stress levels are reaching unhealthy heights.
NIP THE NAIL BITING HABIT FOR YOUR HEALTH
Biting your nails puts you at the risk of infection and other health ailments. Nail biting, also known as onychophagia, is a common habit that affects people of all ages. Biting your nails usually stems from stress or forms as a nervous habit. Most research says that children and teenagers make up the greatest number of regular nail biters. On the surface nail biting may seem like a trivial thing in terms of affecting your health. Although it can seem like biting your nails does nothing more than make the hands look less attractive, there are actually other dangers to repeated nail biting that people prone to the habit should consider. Firstly, biting your nails can be an unsanitary behavior. The fingers can pick up all measures of contaminants, and the nails
can be an ideal location for bacteria to thrive since nails are more difficult to keep clean than the surface of the hands. According to the American Academy of Dermatology, bacteria like E. coli can live beneath the tips of your nails. When you bite your nails, those bacteria end up in your gastrointestinal system and can lead to infection. The nails also can harbor fecal matter and many other unsavory microscopic particles, even parasites. Biting your nails gives these tiny invaders easy access to your body. Nail biting also may lead to infections on the fingers around the nail bed. The infection, called paronychia, causes redness, swelling and pain around the nail. Microorganisms can get into the skin through tiny tears and abrasions that occur while biting the nails and cuticles, says The Mayo Clinic. If the infection damages the nail bed, you can end up affecting nail growth. Should you have warts on your hands or fingers, they easily can be transfered to your lips and mouth through nail biting. Nail biting also can cause problems to your teeth. Prolonged nail biting may affect how the teeth form in children. It can interfere with dental occlusion, or the manner in which the
upper and lower teeth come together to bite. Eventually teeth can shift out of position. The Academy of General Dentistry estimates that nail biting can result in thousands of dollars of extra dental work. While biting your nails may seem like a harmless habit, it actually can affect personal health in a number of ways. Explore the different ways to keep from biting your nails to improve the health of your fingers, your teeth and the rest of your body.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Whatever decisions you’re faced with this week, rely on your strong Aries instincts, and base them on your honest feelings, not necessarily on what others might expect you to do. TAURUS (April 30 to May 20) Your sensitive Taurean spirit is pained by what you feel is an unwarranted attack by a miffed colleague. But your sensible self should see it as proof that you must be doing something right. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) More fine-tuning might be in order before you can be absolutely certain that you’re on the right track. Someone close to you might offer to help. The weekend favors family get-togethers. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) The week continues to be a balancing act ‘twixt dreaming and doing. But by week’s end, you should have a much better idea of what you actually plan to do and how you plan to do it. LEO (July 23 to August 22) Changing your plans can be risky, but it can also be a necessary move. Recheck your facts before you act. Tense encounters should ease by midweek, and all should be well by the weekend. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) You might still be trying to adjust to recent changes. But things should improve considerably as you get to see some positive results. An uneasy personal matter calls for more patience. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Congratulations. Your good intentions are finally recognized, and
long-overdue appreciation should follow. Keep working toward improvements wherever you think they’re necessary. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 2) Try to look at your options without prejudging any of them. Learn the facts, and then make your assessments. Spend the weekend enjoying films, plays and musical events. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Someone might want to take advantage of the Sagittarian’s sense of fair play. But before you ride off to right what you’ve been told is a wrong, be sure of your facts. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) You might be surprised to learn that not everyone agrees with your ideas. But this can prove to be a good thing. Go over them and see where improvements can be made. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) After taking advice on a number of matters in recent months, expect to be called on to return the gesture. And, by the way, you might be surprised at who makes the request. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Reassure everyone concerned that a change of mind isn’t necessarily a change of heart. You might still want to pursue a specific goal, but feel a need to change the way you’ll get there.

Most of his accomplishments are not common knowledge, though — and they deserve to be. Born into poverty on the Caribbean island of Nevis, the illegitimate son of a Scots merchant, Hamilton began work as a clerk at the age of 11. His employ-
ers were so impressed with his intelligence that they paid for him to attend school in America, where he became involved in revolutionary politics. He was a lieutenant colonel by the age of 20 and managed to marry into one of the most distinguished families in New York. In addition to writing most of the Federalist Papers, Hamilton founded the New York Post, the U.S. Coast Guard and the U.S. Mint. • Marie de Medici, queen of France in the early 17th century, once had a gown made that was embellished with more than 3,000 diamonds and 30,000 pearls. *** Thought for the Day: "He who is only just is cruel.
