Clemson, Won and Done Chances are, if you ever spend a little time at Angelo's Fairmount Tavern in Atlantic City, you will run into the odd Dallas Cowboys fan. They can be found at the bar or found in the restaurant proper, drinking house wine and shoveling in plates of pasta underneath the watchful eyes of all the sports memorabilia on the walls. "I've alwaaays been a Cowboys fan," is the familiar refrain. Nobody knows why this is, however. Is it because of Roger Staubach? Tom Landry? The handsome star on their helmets? The cheerleaders? What is it about this team that makes guys like Gov. Chris Christie go to their home games at the taxpayers' expense and hug on Jerry Jones while wearing orange sweaters? Atlantic City is the kind of place that will forgive you if you are a Philadelphia fan. They

may even forgive you if you like the New York Mets. But when you're rooting for teams from South Carolina and Alabama, is that where you draw the line? Here's a guy from Galloway who changed his Facebook profile picture to the Alabama Crimson Tide logo. Why? "I love Nick Saban," he says. OK. What does he love about jolly ol' Nick? "He's on the Bill Parcells coaching tree," he responds. Turns out the guy is a high-school football coach. The whole coaching tree thing is a popular trend for fans, and apparently, coaches these days. So really, Coach? The love of Parcells extends all the way to Alabama? Have you ever visited that state? Ever left Atlantic County? "Never thought of it like that," he says, deleting his profile picture. "Yeah ... kind of weird that a whole place is cheering on S outh Carolina and Alabama."

Not to be a contrarian, but I disagree again. We're not so much cheering on South Carolina as we are cheering on a great game. "And this is a great game," he says in agreement. One day removed from the Giants' kind of lame loss to Green Bay (yes, he's wearing a jersey), it's as if college football made everything right in the world again. The game goes into the waning minutes, and it's like the best heavyweight fight you've ever seen. Clemson scores. Alabama scores. There's one second left on the clock and Clemson is on the 2-yard line. Every single person is in rapt attention, all eyes on the TV screen. Deshaun Watson wins the game. He is the living embodiment of "Rocky II." The entire restaurant erupts in exhilaration. We have seen football future, and its name is Deshaun. This kid can flat out play. The tabs start getting paid. Vegas, it is said, took a huge loss on the game. Nobody feels bad ... they're already looking forward to the next game. "Think Dallas can beat Green Bay?" That's why they play the game, right? Mark Vasto is a veteran sportswriter who lives in New Jersey. © 2017 King Features Synd., Inc.

SHIMKUS SENDING STAFF MEMBER TO GERMANTOWN & ODIN C ongressman John Shimkus (R, Illinois-15) has a tradition of having his staff hold office hours in addition to those he holds himself. This is an opportunity to meet with someone from Shimkus’ office in your hometown. “These office hours allow you to meet face to face with my staff instead of over the telephone or h av i n g t o d r i v e t o Maryville,” Shimkus explained. “The staff person will be able to handle any issue you may have regard-

ing my office or the federal government.” On Tuesday, February 7, a member of Shimkus’ staff will be in Germantown from 12:30 p.m. to 2 p.m. at the Germantown Village Hall (306 Prairie St.) and in Odin from 3 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. at the Odin Village Hall (108 E. Kirkwood St.) Those who cannot attend in person may contact Shimkus’ local office at 618288-7190. More information on services offered by the Congressman's office is also

available on his website: shimkus.house.gov. There you can sign up for a weekly email newsletter, periodic veterans and grant notice email newsletters, and send a message to the Congressman on the website. Shimkus also maintains Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube accounts, where regular updates are posted. Constituents requiring special accommodations should call at least 48 hours prior to the scheduled office hours.

John Cavaletto (R-Salem) joined his colleagues in the House and Senate on Wednesday to listen to Governor Bruce Rauner give his third ‘State of the State’ address to a joint session of the Illinois General Assembly. “I continue to be encouraged by the governor’s long-term goals to change the broken system in Illinois to one that encourages businesses to stay and re-locate to Illinois to create jobs,” said Rep.

By Larry Cox Hopalong Cassidy Box Camera Q: At a recent garage sale, I paid $50 for a Hopalong Cassidy box camera. My husband thinks I overpaid. What do you think? — Dorothy, North Canton, Ohio A: According to "Hopalong Cassidy Collectibles" by Joseph J. Caro, there were two types of Hoppy cameras made, and both are extremely collectible. The camera is an allmetal Brownie that takes 120 size film, with a top strap and metal plate featuring the images of Hopalong Cassidy and his horse, Topper. The only

attachment was a special flash that was sold separately. Without the original box, your camera is worth about $250. I have seen this camera sell for more at auction. *** Q: I have a number of serving dishes in the Candlewick pattern. Tell me what you know about this glass. — Frances, Rio Rancho, New Mexico A: Candlewick glass was made by the Imperial Glass Company from 1936 until October 1982. According to "Glass A-Z" by David Shotwell and published by Krause Books, the pattern, known as Imperial's No. 400, identified the plain

glassware that was molded with beading around the rims and bases or stems of most of the pieces the company produced. For values, I suggest you contact antique dealers in your area. *** Q: I have written to you three times and you never answer my request. I have a brand-new fishing reel that has never been used. It has a nice design and I have never seen anything like it. Thanks for answering or go to hell. — George, Albuquerque, New Mexico A: Because of the volume of letters and email I receive, I am not able to answer each and every

question from readers. You have written me four times, not three, and in none of your letters have you told me really anything about your reel except that it has a beautiful design and was sold by Sears. Sears marketed dozens of reels, and I have no idea which one you have. Because of that lack of information, I do not have a source for you. Incidentally, there is no need to invite me to go to hell. I live in Phoenix. *** Write to Larry Cox in care of KFWS, 628 Virginia Drive, Orlando, FL 32803, or send e-mail to questionsforcox@aol.com. Due to the large volume of mail he receives, Mr. Cox cannot personally answer all reader questions, nor does he do appraisals. Do not send any materials requiring return mail. © 2017 King Features Synd., Inc.

His actions were more ambitious and addressed a larger number of major policy areas, from immigration to trade to national security than any other President's first week in office. He has already begun to work on his campaign promises aggressively. The following are many of these actions. The timeline: January 20: • Taking apart Obamacare. This is an order to "repeal" the Affordable Care Act (ACA) that directs agencies to avoid imposing penalties on individuals and others who do not obtain health insurance immediately while an alternative plan is completed. • Freeze on regulations This is a memo that temporarily bans new federal government regulations. Published regulations yet to take effect must be postponed for 60 days. January 23: • Health aid and abortion. This is a memo restricting funds for global health assistance groups that provide abortion services. The memo reverses a memo signed by Barack Obama. • Withdrawal from Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP). This is a memo directing the U.S. trade representative to "withdraw the U.S. as a signatory to the Trans Pacific Partnership, to permanently withdraw the U.S. from TPP negotiations, and to begin bilateral trade to promote and use the American industry and protect the American workers." • Federal hiring freeze. This is across the board in the executive branch but it does not apply to the military. January 24: • Dakota Access Pipeline. This is a memo that reopens a nearly completed project to build a crude oil pipeline from North Dakota to Illinois. • Shelving regulations to expedite infrastructure. This is an order to expedite environ-

mental reviews. • Keystone XL Pipeline. This is a memo that reopens a project to build a tar sands oil pipeline, linking Canada to the Gulf Coast. U.S. Steel for U.S. pipes. This is a memo directing the Commerce Department to develop a plan to use steel made only in the U.S. for all pipeline projects. • Expedite new manufacturing facilities. Instructs the Secretary of Commerce to create a streamlined federal permitting process for domestic manufacturers. January 25: • Attack on "sanctuary cities." This is an order denying federal funds to "sanctuary cities" that offer some form of safe haven to America's undocumented immigrants. • Build a border wall. This is an order calling for the "immediate construction of a physical wall on the southern border." January 27: • Extreme vetting. Trump signed an order last Friday establishing new vetting measures to keep radical Islamic terrorists out of the U.S. The order included a 120 day suspension of the U.S. refugee program. • Buildup of military. This is an order to begin a buildup by developing a plan for new planes, new ships, and new tools, and developing resources for our men and women in uniform. Reviewing the above 14 Presidential actions of the first week, in my opinion, most will be good for the American economy and American workers. The big issue for some was signed late last Friday night: "Extreme Vetting," with an underlying purpose of not admitting into our country the very threat our soldiers are fighting overseas. It includes a capping of 50,000 refugees from Syria in 2017 and severe limits on immigration from Iraq, Iran, Sudan, Syria, Libya, Somalia and Yemen. The suspended travel was imposed on

the seven countries above. Had it been me, I would have included Saudi Arabia and Turkey as well as Egypt. Keep in mind the seven countries listed above are the very same countries that have been pinpointed by Obama and Congress. This ban is not a Muslim ban, although the liberal media would and has attempted to play it out as such! The reality is U.S. Customs is being told and allowed to do their job, to obey the law. This is a President that would do — and is doing — exactly what he said he would do, and as any good business person, he isn't wasting time. I find it ironic that many have forgotten Barack Obama in 2011 put a six month freeze on Iraq's refugees. Where was the outcry from the media and others then? I truly believe it's not everyone's right to come to America! It's a privilege! And they don't have a right to live off of hard working Americans. And it's certainly not anyone's right come here illegally. So say what you will, we cannot have a free-for-all in America, especially while the countries in the Middle East aren't accepting the refugees. So you can decide — as Trump put it — if you want to listen to reason or if you want to listen to the opposition party, the liberal media, or Europe about how wrong Trump is. But look at the problems Europe has had and is having. Before press time the White House was looking at a better way to deal with green cards. The one issue I had with the ban was in Dallas, Texas there were nine retained with green cards but were later released, and of course, the ACLU has to get involved. Until next week.

Cooking spray 3/4 cup all-fruit seedless red raspberry spread 2 T. honey mustard (lowest sodium available) 1/4 tsp. cayenne

4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (about 4 oz. each), all visible fat discarded, pounded to 1/2"thickness 6 oz. fresh raspberries (about 1⅓ cups)

Lightly spray grill rack with cooking spray. Preheat grill on medium high. In small bowl, stir together raspberry spread, honey mustard and cayenne. Spoon 1/4 cup of mixture into another small bowl and set aside. Lightly brush both sides of each chicken breast with remaining raspberry spread mixture. Grill chicken 8 to 10 minutes on each side, or until no longer pink in center. Meanwhile, add fresh raspberries to reserved raspberry spread mixture, stirring gently to coat. Serve spooned over chicken. Makes 4 (3 oz.) servings.

Buttermilk Pancakes with Apple-Cinnamon Topping 2 cups peeled, thinly sliced tart or mildly tart cooking apples (about 2 medium) 3 T. apple juice and 2 T. apple juice, divided 2 T. brown sugar 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon and 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon, divided

1 cup whole-wheat flour 1/2 tsp. baking soda 1 cup low-fat buttermilk 1 large egg white 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract 1 tsp. canola or corn oil

In small saucepan, stir together apples, 3 T. apple juice, brown sugar and 1/2 tsp. cinnamon. Cook, covered, over medium heat 10 minutes, or until apples are tender. Remove from heat. Let stand, covered, while preparing pancakes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 200°F. In medium bowl, stir together flour, baking soda, and remaining 1/2 tsp. cinnamon. In small bowl, stir together buttermilk and remaining 2 T. apple juice. Pour buttermilk mixture, egg white and vanilla into flour mixture. Stir just until blended (no flour remains visible). Heat a large nonstick griddle or skillet over medium-high heat until a drop of water dripped on griddle sizzles. Pour oil onto griddle. Using a heatproof pastry brush, spread oil over surface. Using 1/4-cup measure, pour batter for 4 pancakes onto hot griddle. Cook pancakes for about 1 minute, or until tops begin to bubble and bottoms are golden brown. Turn over. Cook about 1 minute, or until bottoms are golden brown. Transfer pancakes to heatproof plate, cover with aluminum foil, and keep warm in oven. Repeat until all batter has been used. Serve pancakes topped with apple mixture. Makes 4 servings (2 pancakes, 3½-4" in diameter and 1/4 cup apple mixture per serving).

Cranberry Spritzer 1 cup rainbow sherbet, slightly softened 3 cups chilled light cranberry juice cocktail

1 cup chilled sparkling seltzer water 1/2 cup fresh orange juice 2 tsp. fresh lemon juice

EAGLE LIFE

Ministries by: Cliff Sanders

God’s Treasures When Nicki Benz visits the women in the county detention center she starts every meeting by blessing each woman individually, looking into their eyes and telling them that they are God’s treasures. Many of these women have been treated like trash for most of their lives and they have treated themselves like trash. Many have horrible pasts. Their futures look hopeless. But the truth of their worth in Jesus Christ brings them to tears. When they listen to the message of the Good News of God’s love, mercy, and grace, many of them find freedom and hope. The battle is not easy, the devil fights for them when they go back into the world. In many cases, they are released without enough money to support themselves for a week and they return to the boyfriends, families, pimps, and drug dealers who led them down the wrong path. Some fall back into their old habits and wind up back in jail or prison. But God is raising up

homes and transitional houses for God’s treasures to have a place to recover, learn, and grow in a new life in Christ. A few weeks ago, I came across an obscure passage of scripture that I’d never heard anyone teach on before, “The Lord gives the word and a great army brings the good news. Enemy kings and their armies flee, while the women of Israel divide the plunder. Even those who lived among the sheepfolds found treasures – doves with wings of silver and feathers of gold. The Almighty scattered the enemy kings like a blowing s n ow s t or m on Mt . Zalmon.� (Psalm 68:11-14 NLT) Israel had turned away from God countless times. When they fell into captivity and were afflicted by the enemy, they would cry out to God in repentance and God would raise up a deliverer, called a judge in the Old Testament, to lead them in battle and victory from their oppressors. One such deliverer judge was a prophetess called Deborah. (Judges 4) She

asked a soldier called Barak to lead the Israelite army into battle. He refused to go unless she went with him. She led the army to victory. Even the women and people who stayed behind with the pots and sheep found treasures left by the vast fleeing enemy, “doves with wings of silver and feathers of gold.� (Psalm 68:13 NLT; Judges 5) The Hebrew word “shaphath� has various meanings such as, “thorns, dung, pots, sheepfolds�. The idea was that Israel had been greatly humbled, living in filth, and slavery. But she shall come forth in glory as a beautiful dove covered with silver and feathers tipped in gold. Israel has a bright future. (Jeremiah 29:11) She is God’s treasure. God’s hidden treasures are being found and dug out of the dirt, filth, and trash of the world. “Doves covered with silver and feathers tipped in gold.� In the Bible silver speaks of redemption and gold of deity. Jesus, the holy son of God, was betrayed for 30 pieces of silver. “You were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold . . . But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without spot.� (I Peter 1:18-19) Jesus told a parable of treasure hidden in a field, “Again, the kingdom of

heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which, when man hath found, he hides, and for joy there of goes and sells all he has and buys that field.� (Matthew 13:44) Who is the treasure? You are God’s treasure; all who are buried in the dirt and garbage of sin and the world. Who is the man who sold all to obtain this buried treasure? Jesus Christ gave his all, his very life on the cross for us – “doves with wings of silver and feathers of gold.� The redemption and life of Christ that makes us God’s treasure is precious indeed. Are you part of God’s great army that brings the good news? (Isaiah 1:18; John 1:12; Psalms 68:1314) Shalom, Cliff Sanders Eagle Life Ministries eagleslife8@gmail.com

HOW TO IMPROVE ALERTNESS DURING THE WORKDAY

A long workday can be both mentally and physically draining. As a result, office workers and professionals whose jobs are more physically demanding than office work may find themselves less alert at the end of the workday than at the beginning. A loss of alertness as the workday draws to a close might be unavoidable. But professionals whose sense of alertness begins to dwindle in the thick of the workday might need to take steps to improve their alertness to protect themselves from injury and to ensure the quality of their work does not suffer.

• Avoid caffeine in the late afternoon. Some professionals rely on caffeinated beverages such as coffee or energy drinks to combat afternoon drowsiness. While that afternoon caffeine fix might provide an immediate, if temporary, jolt of energy, it might also affect a person’s energy levels the following day. A 2013 study published in the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine found that caffeine consumed as early as six hours before bedtime can significantly disrupt sleep. Professionals who reach for a cup of coffee in the late afternoon might get a sudden boost of energy,

but their energy levels the following day might be lower due to a poor night’s sleep. • Avoid high-fat foods at lunchtime. Foods that are high in fat should always be avoided thanks to their connection to a host of health problems. Such foods also negatively affect energy levels when consumed in the middle of the day. The University of Rochester Medical Center notes that the body digests and absorbs high-fat foods very slowly. That means workers who eat high-fat foods for lunch won’t get the afternoon energy boost that low-fat, healthy lunches will provide. • S n a c k h e a l t h y. Professionals who find themselves needing a snack in the mid- to late-afternoon can sate their hunger and give themselves an energy boost by snacking healthy. Avoid snacks like potato chips that tend to be high in fat and low in nutrition. Foods that are high in fiber and/or protein can

provide a longer energy boost and quell the afternoon hunger pangs at the same time. Fresh fruit and Greek yogurt fit the bill. • Change your workout schedule. Regular exercise improves short- and longterm health while also increasing daily energy levels. Professionals who include exercise in their daily routines yet still suffer from a lack of alertness in the af-

ternoon may need to alter their workout schedules. A 2011 study published in the Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine found that participants who were assigned afternoon exercise programs during work hours reported increased productivity versus those who were not assigned afternoon workouts. If working out in the afternoon is not

feasible, avoid working out too late at night, as the National Institutes of Health note that exercising within two to three hours of bedtime can disrupt sleep, ultimately having a negative impact on energy levels the following day. Professionals who find their alertness levels waning in the afternoons can combat such drowsiness in various ways.

HOW TO ENCOURAGE KIDS TO TAKE CARE OF THEIR TEETH Parents of young children know that getting kids to brush their teeth can sometimes feel like pulling teeth. Kids have a long history of disliking dental care, which can frustrate parents who know the importance and long-lasting benefits of proper dental hygiene. While many youngsters may never excitedly run to the bathroom to brush their teeth, parents can try various approaches to get kids to embrace proper dental care. • Start early. Parents should not hesitate to begin cleaning kids’ teeth once the first tooth appears. The earlier dental care is part of a child’s routine, the more likely he or she is to accept it as part of everyday life. The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recom-

mends using a soft-bristled brush with a small head. Ideally, use a toothbrush designed for infants, brushing teeth once per day at bedtime. The AAPD advises taking kids to visit a pediatric dentist when the first tooth appears, or no later than the child’s first birthday. • Make it a group effort. Young children love to imitate their parents’ actions and behaviors, and moms and dads can use that adoration to their advantage when trying to get kids to brush their teeth. Brush teeth together as a family, making it seem like an enjoyable twice-daily activity. Get down on kids’ level and show them how to brush. If kids are resistant, engage them in conversation while brushing so they don’t even realize

they’re cleaning away. • Involve kids in choosing their dental care products. While parents should be mindful of the type of toothbrush their children use, always sticking with products recommended by their child’s pediatric dentist, let youngsters choose their toothbrush and toothpaste. Kids might prefer a particular flavor of toothpaste, and a colorful toothbrush with a favorite film or television character might make kids more enthusiastic and less fussy about brushing. • Compliment kids after positive dental appointments. When pediatric dentist appointments go well, compliment children and express your pride in them for taking dental hygiene as seriously as they do.

THE HIDDEN BENEFITS OF WATER Dehydration is a dangerous condition that can cause a host of complications and even prove fatal in severe cases. But as dangerous as dehydration can be, many cases are entirely preventable. The best way to prevent dehydration is to drink enough water. When the body does not take in as much water as it puts out, it can become dehydrated. People who live in warm climates or in elevated altitudes may lose more water than those who do not. In addition, water loss is accelerated during strenuous exercise, highlighting the emphasis men and women must place on drinking enough water during their workouts. But water does more for the body than prevent dehydration. The following are a handful of lesser known ways that water benefits the body. • Water can help people maintain healthy weights. Dieting fads come and go, but water is a mainstay for people who want to control their caloric intake in an effort to maintain healthy weights. Water has zero calories, so reaching for a bottle or glass of water instead of a soda, lemonade or another caloric beverage can help people keep the pounds off. A study from researchers at the University of

Texas Health Science Center found that even diet soda enhances weight gain by as much as 41 percent. In addition, soda has been linked to conditions such as obesity, diabetes and tooth decay. No such association exists with water. • Water helps to fight fatigue. The fatigue-fighting properties of water are another of its lesser known benefits. When the body is not adequately hydrated, it can experience muscle soreness. And fitness enthusiasts who do not drink enough water may notice their bodies require extensive recovery time after working out. Each of those consequences can be prevented by drinking enough water, and doing so can even improve performance, as studies have shown that just a 3 percent loss of body weight due to dehydration can cause as much as a 10 percent drop in performance level. • Water can improve the appearance of the skin. Skin that does not get enough water can turn dry and flaky and feel tight. In addition, dry skin is more likely to wrinkle than adequately hydrated skin.

Getting water to the skin can be tricky, as the University of WisconsinMadis on S cho ol of Medicine and Public Health notes that water will reach all the other organs of the body before it reaches the skin. But the school recommends applying a hydrating moisturizer within two minutes of leaving the bath or shower and drinking at least eight glasses of water a day to ensure the skin is getting enough water. • Water helps the gastrointestinal tract. Water can help maintain normal bowel function. When the body lacks sufficient fluid, the colon will pull water from stools in an effort to stay hydrated. That can lead to constipation, a condition in which people experience difficulty emptying their bowels. By drinking enough water, people can ensure their colon will not have to pull water from stools to stay hydrated, thereby helping them stay regular. Water helps the body in myriad ways, many of which might surprise people unaware of just how valuable water can be to the body.

SIMPLE WAYS TO AVOID INJURIES WHEN WORKING OUT A desire to live a healthy, active life compels many people to include exercise in t h e i r d a i l y rout i n e s . Numerous studies have shown that regular workouts that include a combination of strength training and cardiovascular exercise can make bodies less susceptible to injury while reducing a person’s risk for conditions such as heart disease, stroke and diabetes. Exercising is most effective when it’s part of a daily routine, but that routine can be derailed if men and women are not taking the appropriate measures to avoid injury while working out. While even professional athletes succumb to injury from time to time, there are steps everyone can take to avoid injury when working out. • Confirm your technique is the right one. Exercise science is continuously evolv-

ing, and that means workouts and fitness machines are evolving as well. When using a piece of equipment for the first time or altering a workout routine, men and women should consult with a gym employee or personal trainer to learn the correct technique. Incorrect technique can lead to minor and serious injuries because muscles are used in ways they are not intended to be used when exercises are performed properly. Research appropriate techniques, taking advantage of online video tutorials if you don’t exercise at a gym, to ensure the exercises you want to perform are done properly. When beginning a new routine, ask a friend or gym employee to observe your workout and let you know if you are doing anything incorrectly. • Be patient. Lifting too much weight or pushing

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) The changes you’ve waited to see in your work situation might not be happening quite as quickly as you’d hoped. Although the pace is slow, it’s ongoing. Expect to hear news soon. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) You should be feeling very proud of the fine effort you’ve made to get that important project done. Now take some time out to celebrate with family and friends. You’ve earned it. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You’re close to reaching your objectives. That’s the good news. But be careful: Your aspects show lots of potential distractions looming. Stay focused and keep your eyes fixed on your goals. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Be careful not to let that suspicious Cancerian mind create a problem where none exists. What you might believe is an act of betrayal could be nothing more than a misunderstanding. LEO (July 23 to August 22) Your Lion’s heart overflows with self-confidence. All you need to do is tap into it, and you’ll be able to handle any change that must be made regarding that recent surprise development. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) The need to watch what you say becomes increasingly crucial this week. Be as temperate as you can with your comments and avoid arguments for the sake of controversy. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) A longtime family problem presents

new demands. But this time, you won’t have to go it alone: Someone else is asking to help share your responsibilities. Let it happen. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) A period of feeling vulnerable is about to give way to a stronger, more self-confident aspect. Use this new strength to reaffirm promises you’ve made to others and yourself. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) A creative dilemma stalls your progress. Instead of letting it raise your ire, use the time to re-examine your aims and, perhaps, come up with a new target. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Your nimble will finds a way for you to work out those newly emerged problems plaguing your new project. Stay with it. The results will be well worth your efforts. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) You might feel overwhelmed at having to decide which new opportunity you should follow. Best advice: Check them all out and see which offers what you really want. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Continue to tread water before you even consider plunging into something that never seemed quite right. Some facts will soon emerge that can help you make a decision. BORN THIS WEEK: You’re a naturalborn peacemaker. You value truth and have little patience with those who lie to you for their own purposes. © 2017 King Features Synd., Inc.
