GRAND LAKE — High above the patches of aspen among the graying remains of lodgepole pine, Travis Withrow, 22, was on watch duty last weekend. In the three-story Shadow Mountain Lookout tower, Withrow paced the catwalk that wraps around the building, a treasured relic built in 1932. From his vantage point on a clear day, the lone Rocky Mountain National Park trails-crew worker would see with his naked eye all the way from Winter Park to the Never Summer Range, the Great Lakes of Grand County, and with concentration, hear the hush of Adams Falls in the distance. In a chair he’d placed on the catwalk, Withrow

➤ LOOKOUT, FROM PAGE 1 ouac or Edward Abbey, those who appreciated the solitude of other lookouts for passing the time reading, writing, contemplating, and most of all, observing. But at this particular lookout — the sole one remaining in Rocky Mountain National Park — the list of lookout individuals was cut short long ago. The building has been unoccupied for the purpose of lookout since 1968. This summer, with federal funds granted to bolster fire preparedness in regions of extreme fire danger, the tower is being staffed for the first time once again. Four individuals, including Withrow, will be staying at the watch tower for rotations of three days for as long as fire danger is extreme. The first of the lookout crew took to his post June 22. “It was really cool to be able to see the park from a different point of view,� Withrow said, after having descended the five-mile trail on Monday, upon a scheduled shift change. “I definitely didn’t see any smoke,� he said. “Anything I saw was just dust or evaporation coming off the ground after the rain.�
‘Class act’ tower Rocky Mountain National Park’s Colorado River District Ranger Mark McCutcheon has spent his share of time in lookout towers, having spotted a fire as a young ranger while serving as a lookout at Mount Rainier in 1977. He also staffed a fire tower as a district ranger in Lassen Volcanic National Park in Northern California. Every so often since relocating to Rocky Mountain National Park, McCutcheon has visited the Shadow Lookout Tower to tidy it up and spend a summer’s night. Being up there in a glorified treehouse perched on a mountaintop — “It’s sort of natural high,� he said. Three years ago, Park crews took down trees in the perimeter of the tower to reduce fire hazards to the building and make it more functional as a watch tower. “In my mind, I always thought it

The dispatch immediately disseminates the information to local fire agencies. “As we found out on the Estes Park Fire last week, a timely response matters,� said Park Fire Management Officer Mike Lewelling last Friday. “It can mean the difference between catching it small or having a bigger incident. “Our area really does have a lot of watchful folks,� he said, “but having a dedicated resource specifically looking for smoke, it lends peace of mind.� — Tonya Bina can be reached at 970887-3334 ext. 19603

Sign up for emergency notification Code Red Code Red sends people emergency information via cell phones. This service is tailored for those who do not have land lines. Registering one’s information to receive notifications about an emergency close to home on a cell phone is easy. Go to gcemergency.com and click on the link in red letters under “Code Red” information.Then on the Code Red page, fill out the information about where you live and your cell phone number(s). Code Red will ask you to pinpoint on a map the location of your home for greatest accuracy.Then Code Red will alert you via cell phone if there is an emergency near your place of residence. Or, call the Grand County Office of Emergency Management at 970-8872732 to have someone help sign you up over the telephone. Code Red Mobile Alert app This free new app alerts a cell phone user if there is an emergency near where the person is located, which differs from the Code Red registration that notifies cell phone users of emergencies near their homes.You only receive a message if the city or county of your current location authorizes and sends a message. Users should make sure they turn on the “location services” under “Settings” on their smart phones to ensure the Code Red app functions properly. Because the two Code Red services — the app and the online version — differ in the location of emergencies they warn you about, users should download and sign up for both.
2-1-1 The 2-1-1 system is administered by the United Way of Larimer County. Before a major Grand County emergency, anyone who may need extra assistance — whether temporary or permanent — should register with 2-1-1.This could be a single mother who may need help during an evacuation, it could be a person who relies on oxygen, it could be a person who doesn’t own a vehicle and needs help if there is an evacuation, or it could be a person who has an injury such as a broken leg, which would limit him or her from taking necessary steps to get to safety.The service 2-1-1 would arrange with other services in the community to prepare for when such people may need extra assistance.Also, 2-1-1 would be the place to call for emergency information if one does not have access to the Internet during an emergency, and it would also be the place accepting calls from individuals who want to make donations to a disaster area during an emergency.The intention of this number would be a resource to free up unnecessary calls to 911 dispatch Land line emergency notification The emergency notification system using 911 is the system that notifies land-line telephone users of an emergency taking place close to home. The dispatcher would notify all homeowners within a certain radius of a location, regardless of the telephone company homeowners are contracted with within that zone.

Frank Appelhans has been flipping pancakes in for the Grand Lake Rotary since 1975. COURTESY PHOTO.

GRAND LAKE — With the nickname “Mr. Pancake,� Frank Appelhans has held the spatula for 38 years as a Rotarian, flipping flapjacks for the club’s annual pancake breakfasts in the town park. He “graduated� to pancake duty after serving a few years cooking sausage, he said, starting in the 1970s. He’s held his position without a demotion since. “You’ve got to start somewhere,� he said. In his estimation, he has grilled at least 52,000 pancakes during h i s v o l u nt e e r h o u r s at Grand Lake’s Fourth of July and Buffalo Barbecue celebrations. Needless to say, the man knows how to make a pancake. “There’s a reason we call him Mr. Pancake,� said fellow Rotarian Larry Bacon. “He makes the best most perfectly shaped and most eatable pancakes. And h e c a n e v e n ma k e a Mickey Mouse pancake for a kid upon request.� Making pancakes is all in the batter, Appelhans said. The Grand Lake Rotary uses a special “secret� ingredient in its pancakes, which makes them particularly fluffy. Included in the
recipe is about 300 pounds of pancake mix per summer breakfast event. In a trailer at the park acquired for the pancake breakfasts, Rotarians mix the batter using a large mixer and bring it to Appelhans in 5-gallon buckets at-a-time. Appelhans sees to it the grills used for pancakes are hot enough, and especially, evenly heated. This Fourth of July for the first time, Appelhans’ son Travis will be joining him at the grill to learn his dad’s expert flipping techniques. At $6 a plate for adults, the pancake breakfast have been able to fund a variety of scholarships provided by Rotary, according to Bacon. Among them are a $1,000

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR More musings about language To the Editor: After reading Mr. Hamilton's musings on language, and especially German notions about work, I'm reminded of a metal sign that dominated the entrance to Auschwitz: "Arbeit Macht Frei," meaning Work Makes You Free. ERIK ALANDER GRAND LAKE
Parshall General Store fire The Parshall General Store burned to the ground on Feb. 12. The Estate of Dorothy Hammer would like to demolish the burned down ruins and provide a clean sweep of the debris. However, the Estate has had some difficulty dealing with the insurance company that insured the building. For this reason, the Estate has had to delay the demolition, which is something it has been wanting to do for some time now. Please accept our sincere regret for not being able to clean up the site and demolishing the building in Parshall, as the Estate loves Grand County as much as those who read this notice and publication. The Estate has contractors in place to demolish the building and is willing to proceed when we are told by the insurance company has no more interest in inspecting the property. The estate wishes to thank the people of Grand County and the Town of Parshall for your patience and understating of the difficult task of handling a devastating disaster such as the Parshall General Store burn down. Furthermore, The Estate wishes to thank all the firemen, first responders, the Forest Service, Grand County Offices, and all involved, for their great and kind service. Once these matters are handled, the Estate will demolish and clean the site for the benefit of The Estate, Grand County, and the Town of Parshall. Thank you, again. S. K. HOFFMAN EXECUTOR, ESTATE OF DOROTHY HAMMER
Documentation of union violence To the Editor: Ralph Green questioned some of my statements about union violence and asked for documentation. So here goes! The union violence in Washington State, at the NYC Marriott and the hotel fire that killed 100 people were written up in the Denver Post and other national papers. We can add another concern to the list and that is the millions of dollars of damage done to Wisconsin’s Capitol by union protesters. The information about the current president of the AFL-CIO, Richard Trumka, more details on the cases above and stories of on going union violence can be found in the monthly newsletter and on the website of the National Right to Work Committee (www.nrtwc.org). They also have a website video titled “License to Kill” that documents union violence. Mr. Green also questioned the figure of 12,000 acts of union violence as reported by the media. The source of this information is from the National Right to Work Committee and fits very well with the 8,799 incidents of union violence as reported by the National Institute of Labor Relations as many crimes do not make it to court. Mr. Green seems to think a lack of conviction in prosecuted case means there was no crime. The injuries to the strikebreakers or the damaged business property did not go away because there was no conviction. I do agree with Mr. Green that union violence is not as bad as the early 1900s but it is still occurring, is unacceptable and should be stopped. As mention in the previous letter - the Enmons Decision, Supreme Court-1973, prohibits the federal government from prosecuting union crimes. That ruling is morally wrong and should be changed. The Republicans agree and have introduced a bill HR 4074 which would allow the federal government to prosecute union crimes. Some of the federal laws such as the racketeering law would be helpful in union crimes to pin the crime on the union bosses who order it and not just the members who carry them out. Democrats in Congress who get over 90 percent of all union contributions won’t vote against the union bosses, even if it is the right thing to do. I stand by my statement: if you vote for a Democrat, including Obama, without knowing their stance on HR 4074, you are condoning union violence. TIM T. SCHOWALTER GRANBY
O
nce again, we are emptynesters. The fox family that used the cave underneath the huge rock directly behind our house departed. Either that, or the ground squirrel we now see examining the fox den must have a death wish. Several weeks ago, Wonder WILLIAM HAMILTON Wife saw this sweet, little fox face peering out from the darkness of the cave. Increasing our surveillance, we began to see four kits in all. Three of them were very robust, one of them sickly. By the dawn’s early light, we sometimes saw the male bringing food to the den. When she was well enough, the vixen shared in the food-gathering chores, mostly in the evenings. One morning, the vixen brought all four kits down from the cave and out onto our gravel driveway. While the father fox supervised the healthier kits at play — learning how to leap and pounce on each other — the vixen lay down to encourage the sickly kit to nurse. Unfortunately, that was the last time we saw the sick-
CENTRAL VIEW
ly kit. All too soon, the remaining kits were teenagers exhibiting the unfocused, wandering ways of teenagers. Those drew quick c o r re c t i o n s f ro m t h e v i x e n and/or the father fox. One of the kits who was obviously the alpha male or the alpha female spent much more time lying just outside the entrance to the den than did the other kits. As a result, when one of the parents returned to the den carrying something to eat, the alpha kit was first in line for chow. Charles Darwin at work. As the kits grew stronger, we could tell the alpha kit was trying to decide if it was time to face the world on its own terms. Was it time to break the loving bonds of family and venture out into the unknown world? We just happened to be watching when the alpha kit left the den for good and trotted determinedly out our driveway. We were both proud and sad. We hated to see that brave alpha kit go. Initially, all that giving birth, feeding, and kit-rearing caused the vixen, like new mothers e v e r y w h e re, t o l o o k p re t t y bedraggled. But the last time we saw her, her coat looked much better and the spring was back in her step. Yesterday, the father fox was sitting on a small rock at the
far end of our driveway. He seemed lost in thought as if he were thinking about how they grow up all too quickly and then they are gone. Well, almost gone. We take comfort in the fact that our house seems to be in the center of their approximate twomile-radius range. We also know t h a t t h e a d o l e s c e n t s, e v e n though now out on their own, often linger within the range to help with the raising of the next litter. The Red Fox (Vulpes fulva) will be mating again next year sometime between January and March. If we are lucky, come spring, the vixen will return to the cave underneath the huge rock behind our house and the fox family will, once again, provide us with several weeks of viewing enjoyment. Granted, chicken farmers, voles, mice, and ground squirrels do not share our enthusiasm for the Red Fox; however, the Vulpes fulva’s careful parenting, supervised play, and their loving and cooperative family life should be a role model for us all.

Supreme Court verdict helps fix system T
here is an ad running in Colorado on behalf of President Obama’s re-election that contains a point besides the one it intended. The ad f e atu re s a n older woman with Parkinsons-like symptoms who said that when Bain Capital (Mitt R o m n e y ’s FELICIA MUFTIC firm) bought the profitable company for which she had worked for many years and ran it into bankruptcy, she lost her health insurance and pension. The punch line: “Mitt Romney... he made me sick.” The obvious message of the ad is that Romney did not care about the damage his business practices caused to human beings, but the ad also illustrates a nagging, widespread fear that loss of a job means loss of health insurance. Had Obamacare been in effect, that laid-off worker in poor health could have been able to get insurance. The Supreme Court’s decision upholding the constitutionality of Obamacare is more than just a political victory for the President. It is a victory for consumers. The health system we have had has failed, for both those who could not afford insurance and even the insured. Estimates are that 26,000 people die early because they did
MY VIEW
not have access to insurance. The no. one cause of bankruptcy is inability to pay health care bills and many of those bankrupted are insured with inadequate policies. Care providers pass their costs not covered by patients’ payments on to the insured. After the Supreme Court decision, I received calls from family members and close friends who were relieved. One was selfemployed and could not afford health insurance for himself and his family. He will be able to afford it January 2014. Another has college-aged children who will now be assured they can stay on their family’s insurance until they are 26. Another was at work and trying to pay off $20,000 worth of co-pays for cancer treatments not covered by her employer-provided insurance. She has been living in fear of layoffs and a major illness that would drive her to bankruptcy or loss of her home. After COBRA would have run out, she would be uninsurable due to her pre-existing conditions. She has been very grateful for the part of Obamacare that is already in effect that requires coverage of necessary and frequent mammograms without a co-pay. We seniors are also relieved that the donut hole is covered. Buried in the law is the cost of the health system will be lowered due to some important cost-savings measures. Medicare just got 12
years tacked onto its life and my benefits are not reduced. We are informed consumers. The socalled “death panels” are prevented by the law from making any edicts that would have power over those end-of-life treatments. We are also small business people and in spite of the GOP campaign of misinformation, we understand that we who have less than 50 employees do not have to provide health insurance, but if we do, we get generous tax credits. Our employees can seek affordable insurance in the new marketplace exchange instead. All of us understand that nothing in Obamacare will interfere with our relationships with our doctor. In fact, the uninsured will finally be able to afford to have a doctor with whom they can have a relationship. Health care will no longer be rationed by private insurers’ arbitrary denials and one’s ability to pay for care. These benefits are what Mitt Romney and the GOP want to take away from consumers, though Romney is professing to keep some, but not all. He has offered no mechanism to fund them. He is in an awkward situation, explaining why the policies of Romneycare for Massachusetts, the model for Obamacare, is wrong for the rest of the nation.

MUSIC
Music in Grand County helps clear the air JOAN SHAW Special to the Sky-Hi News
G
rand County experienced only one day of hazy conditions due to the state forest fires throughout the state. The final concert of the Grand County Concert Series cleared the air in numerous ways. Many conversations at the concert and the following days were not about the flames and devastation but about this musical event featuring unusual instruments. “This authentic organic sound and its emphasis on expressing the range of human emotion, speaks directly to our time. We are not about recreating music of the past for its own sake, but rather bringing it alive for 21st century audiences,” said Frank Nowell, founder, artistic director and harpsichordist of the Baroque Chamber Orchestra of Colorado. He performed on an 8-foot instrument from the 1500s. The harpsichord is unlike the piano in that the strings are plucked rather than struck and it has no pedals to provide dynamics yet the sound is very satisfying as a solo instrument as well as an ensemble. Expression is possible though articulation, timing and interpretation. Also performing were two violinists, one playing a Baroque instrument with unusual features with a fine, plaintive sound. Stacey Brady and Mary Harrison used

no vibrato and had the talent to play together in perfect pitch and timbre giving the audience a distinct sound to their playing. Bassoonist, Patricia Fagan-Miller, played hundreds of notes on her ancient bassoon, which had only eight keys compared to a modern bassoon that has 22 plus alternate keys for ease. She was very impressive with her agility and tone. Linda Lunback played several recorders for various selections with little effort but anyone familiar with this instrument knows how difficult her music was with only open holes for her sound. Children in our local elementary schools received an education on music, notation and theory on simple recorders. This concert was a prime example of the perfection of a professional with years of practice not only as a soloist but as an ensemble musician. The musicians played Telemann, Handel, Marias and other early composers with a balanced ensemble. Stacy Brady, violinist, felt she had shared her peace and joy with all of us. At the reception Linda Lunbeck told the attendees it was a delight to share the music we love with an appreciative music audience. “Every voice was discernible and presented a pure sound,” said concert-goer, Heinz Engel. Judy Baxter, spokesperson for the Concert Series, announced the program for the 10th anniversary of the concert series beginning January 2013. www.grand-countyconcertseries.org greg@ccingrandco.com

Hot cars are death traps for pets RedRover, a national nonprofit animal protection organization, is imploring pet owners to avoid leaving their dogs in hot cars this summer — a practice that can lead to serious illness and even death. Five reasons why leaving a dog in a hot car can be deadly: 1.Dogs are especially vulnerable to heat-related illness because they can only cool off by panting and through the pads in their feet. 2. Even on seemingly mild days, an enclosed car can be deadly. In a Stanford University study, when
it was 72 degrees outside, a car's internal temperature climbed to 116 degrees within one hour. 3. Enclosed cars heat up quickly. 4.A dog's normal body temperature is between 101 to 102.5 degrees; a dog can only withstand a high body temperature for a short time before suffering nerve damage, heart problems, liver damage, brain damage or even death. 5. Studies show that cracking the windows has little effect on a car's internal temperature. Visit www.MyDogIsCool.com.

Austin Musicians Bring Talent to Winter Park WINTER PARK - Cooper Creek Square brings Austin musicians Albert & Gage for a free show to Music On The Mall Friday, July 6 5 to 7 p.m. Christine Albert and Chris Gage are well respected, seasoned music business veterans, but the joy they experience making music together is fresh and infectious. Gage is a journeyman musician and South Dakota native who began touring in a station wagon at age 15. In the mid-70s and 80s he led the popular Midwestern country-swing Red Willow Band, whose reunion shows still draw thousands of devoted fans. Later, he graduated to an eight-year tenure on piano with guitar virtuoso and country star Roy Clark, which included appearances on Hee Haw, The Tonight Show and The Grand Ole Opry. After moving to Austin in 1991, Gage
began commuting to San Antonio to take the reins as musical director for the Fiesta Texas theme park. But it was during his next incarnation as bandleader for West Texas alt-country singer/songwriter Jimmie Dale Gilmore, that he began to carve out his own place in the Austin scene as an indemand session player, accompanist and producer. It was with Gilmore that Albert first heard Gage play, and in 1997 Albert & Gage f o r m e d . T h e d u o l at e r toured as an opening act for Gilmore and as members of his ensemble. A l b e r t re l e a s e d s o l o albums during the years before she met Gage, and had established a solid name on the Texas scene. S h e w a s v o t e d Fe ma l e Vocalist of the Year in the Kerrville Music Awards poll and has appeared on Austin City Limits.

Heavy traffic week ahead The Colorado Department of Transportation is reminding drivers to anticipate heavy traffic in many areas of the state during the Fourth of July week. “This is traditionally the beginning of the busy summer traffic season. The snow is all gone, the children are out of school and vacation travel is building,� said CDOT Executive Director Don Hunt. “With the July 4th holiday falling in the middle of the week, we’re expecting to see a significant jump in traffic not only before but after the actual holiday so people should make their travel plans accordingly.� To reduce potential delays, all CDOT construction projects will be suspended statewide on Wednesday. Most projects will continue operating Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday; others will be suspended all week. The only exception is for emergency operations.
Heavier than normal traffic should be anticipated on the state’s main thoroughfares, including Interstate 25 and Interstate 70, especially between Vail and the Denver area. Since Independence Day is Wednesday this year, traffic counts are anticipated to be higher than normal, but lower than when the 4th includes a weekend. Due to this year’s wildfires, a highway can be closed at any time to facilitate firefighting activities, evacuations or for other public safety functions, according to CDOT. Additional information regarding fire bans and fireworks restrictions is available at www.colorado.gov. Information regarding the opening and closing of the state’s highways is available at all times on the cotrip.org website or by calling 511.

FRASER/ WINTER PARK — FraserWinter Park Police Officer Brett Schroetlin has a new police canine, Argo, a 3-year-old German shepherd. Argo is now on patrol with him in Winter Park and Fraser. Schroetlin recently retired Astra, his first police canine, due to medical issues. “Argo is essentially a locating tool. He c a n l o c a t e p e o p l e a n d d r u g s ,� Schroetlin said. Argo is command-driven and his commands are in German. He is certified by the National Police Canine Association, which is the national standard for police dogs. In order to stay in-tune, Argo and Brett go to weekly training classes to keep their skill level up to standards. Police canines are trained in extensive obedience, and include on-and offl e a s h c o n t ro l , h u m a n a n d c a n i n e socialization, and agility such as accessing windows, stairs, and obstacles. For the dog, it's fun for them to perform their duties, said Schroetlin. “While we are still considered a safe community, we are not exempt from crime and the new trends that join it, and thus we must take a proactive stance to keep our community the way we like it: crime-free,� said Schroetlin in
a letter regarding the program. “It has been shown that the mere presence of a Police K-9 within a community has significantly reduced the amount of criminal activity within an area. Also, a K-9 will reduce the amount of man-hours needed to search a building, an area, or a vehicle, and will do so more safely and efficiently.� Some of the Argo’s tasks will include tracking humans through a combination of scent and ground disturbance. Tracking is used mostly in locating and following a suspect's trail from the scene of a crime and can be used for lost or missing children and adults. Argo can also perform narcotic searches and will be able to locate the odor of any illegal substance. Other tasks include open area searches to find firearms and other dangerous items, apprehending fleeing suspects, and searching buildings. Police canines have a remarkable sense of smell, hearing, and sight, along with their agility, versatility, stamina, and speed. These dogs have 300 olfactory nerve endings in their noses compared to just seven in the human nose, and their hearing is believed to be about 25 times better than a human. Schroetlin and Argo are available for demos and presentations at community events and schools. Contact the Fraser-Winter Park Police Department for more information, 970-722-7779

Skin Cancer: Northwest Colorado’s Epidemic People flock to the mountains to enjoy our bountiful outdoor activities. But with over 300 sunny days a year, high altitude, and year round outdoor activities it also gives us one of the highest incidence’s of skin cancer in the country. Over 3.5 million Americans with have skin cancer this year. This year the incidence of Melanoma is one out of every 27 Americans. Colorado leads the country in incidence of skin cancer. The majority of skin cancer is caused from ultraviolet radiation. Every ray of sunshine damages our DNA permanently. As we accumulate DNA damage the body in unable to control the proliferation of skin cells and cancer is the result. There are three types of skin cancer: Basal Cell carcinoma, Squamous cell Carcinoma, and Malignant Melanoma. Basal Cell carcinoma usually starts as a small red bump. This bump slowly grows and invades surrounding tissue. It is often described as a “pimple that never heals”. It will bleed, scab, heal and repeat. If left untreated it can

destroy and invade nerves, vital structures, and even cause death. Squamous cell is a more dangerous skin cancer and accounts for 5% of skin cancer deaths per year. It is a more rapidly growing lesion. It looks warty and scaly. The most dangerous skin cancer is Melanoma. Although the third most common, it is the most deadly. Melanoma arises from the mole cells in the skin. If you have a mole that is changing, it may have turned into a Melanoma. The borders of the mole-like cancer are often irregular, have several colors, is asymmetric, and is growing. Half of Melanomas arise in existing moles, the other half arise as a new mole. What are the risk factors for getting skin cancer? If you have ever had a blistering sunburn, if
you have red or blond hair, a family history of skin cancer, more than fifty moles, tanning bed exposure, skin that freckles easily, or live at altitude, you have an increased risk for all skin cancers. So what can you do to avoid having skin cancer? We need to change the way we think about sun exposure. There is nothing healthy about being tan. Ultraviolet radiation is in the same carcinogenic group as cigarette smoking and asbestos. Sunscreens are getting better
every year. You need to look for a broad-spectrum sunscreen, spf 30 or greater, reapply every two hours and apply a liberal amount with each application. In order to achieve the actual spf, you need to apply 1-2 ounces for an average person. Wearing a daily sunscreen has been shown to cut your risk of Melanoma in half! So in the summer, you should be using a bottle of sunscreen a week. But wearing sunscreens is not enough. Despite Americans using sunscreens, skin cancer continues to rise. We need to cover-up more. Broad rimmed hats, long sleeves, and shade need to be a part of your sun protection ritual. Avoid tanning beds as they cause skin cancer. Avoid mid day sun between 10am-300pm. Get your skin checked by a professional. You lower your mortality risk of skin cancer by fifty percent if you routinely get your skin checked by a Dermatologist. So have a great Summer and practice safe sun! Sandi Eivins, MD Board certified Dermatologist

PUZZLE ANSWER
ALCOHOLIC FEELS HE DOESN'T DESERVE THE LOVE OF HIS LIFE DEAR ABBY: I am a 39-year-old gay man in a three-year relationship with a wonderful man. We had both come out of very long and abusive relationships when we met. He works hard, and I stay home and take care of the house, the animals and the yard. There is no kind of abuse in our relationship. The problem is that I am an alcoholic. He keeps telling me he can handle it as long as there is no abuse. I feel I'm taking advantage of him and that he deserves better than this, and I have told him so. I have been in rehab several times and tried AA. Nothing worked. I always go back to drinking. Where do I go from here? I don't want to lose the love of my life, but it's killing me inside that he has to put up with my drinking problem. -NEEDS HELP IN FLORIDA DEAR NEEDS HELP: There IS abuse going on in your relationship -- substance abuse. Until you finally decide that there is something more important than a drink, you will remain stuck in your addiction. And as long as your partner continues to accept and "handle it," he will be your enabler. Where you go from here is up to you, but getting counseling for your low self-esteem and going back to AA would be giant steps in the CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino, 30; Becki Newton, 34; Geraldo Rivera, 69; Neil Simon, 85. Happy Birthday: Look for opportunities to partner with people who bring you greater stability and an equal contribution. Balance will make the difference to your success. Unpredictable situations and people will cause worry and trouble. Don't take on responsibilities that will weigh you down or hinder your chance to get ahead. Your numbers are 4, 16, 21, 23, 28, 35, 42. ARIES (March 21-April 19): Don't let emotions flavor your day when it comes to professional dealings. Keep a straight face and conceal your intentions for the time being. Pour energy into developing your plans until you are fully prepared to launch. 2 stars TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Feel out a pending situation and you will discover information that will help you organize your next move. Someone you feel responsible for will offer you something in return. Use charm to get what you want. Pushiness will lead to upset. 5 stars GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Do your research before getting involved in a venture that requires a cash investment. Network with people who can help you advance. Your charming way of displaying
right direction. DEAR ABBY: It seems that every other letter you print concerns a demanding relative (a parent, in-law, sibling, etc.). The writer always wants to know how to avoid unreasonable demands without causing "unpleasantness." May I say a word to these folks? Be honest and admit that the relationship is ALREADY unpleasant. Demanding people are impossible to please. They know their control over you depends on temper tantrums and/or fits of sulking and tears. They'll pitch these fits regularly no matter how hard you try to please them. When faced with an unreasonable demand, just say "no." Don't waste time giving reasons or trying to work out a compromise. You already know it won't do any good. Then hunker down and wait for the explosion, keeping in mind that the longer you have been a doormat, the more violent and bitter the reaction will be. Above all, do not be drawn into a fight! Controlling people love to fight, and they are good at it. Your weapon should be polite withdrawal. Refuse meetings. Screen your calls. Ignore letters and emails unless they contain an apology and indicate
who you are and what you can offer will seal a deal. 3 stars CANCER (June 21-July 22): Avoid family feuds or discord with a partner. Beautify your surroundings or spend time rethinking ways to improve your image or current emotional situation. Interest in different cultures will instigate a positive change. 3 stars LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Mix and mingle with people involved in similar interests. The more you discuss what you can do, the more options will open up. A partnership can bring you good fortune, as long as you set up ground rules from the outset. 3 stars VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Don't spend too much time on details or you will not reach your deadline on time. Offer time, money and information in order to get the best results. Avoid making personal alterations based on a sales pitch that is too good to be true. 5 stars LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Expand your mind and delve into new interests. Enjoying the company of someone who shares your interests will help you make decisions that can alter your current way of living, as well as your partnerships. Love is in the stars. 2 stars SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Travel if it will help close a deal or find information pertinent to

what you are pursuing. Don't be afraid to make changes to the way you do things if it will ensure that you get the job done efficiently and on time. 4 stars SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Keep moving. You can accomplish plenty if you are driven and determined to get things done. Your dedication and passion will place you in a good position when it comes to advancement and new opportunities. Love is highlighted. 3 stars CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Don't be confused by the reactions you get from someone dependent on you or forcing responsibilities on you. Put your own agenda first. Take time to reassess and nurture the partnerships that give an equal

a sincere desire for change. It may shock your domineering relatives into more reasonable behavior. If not, you haven't lost a thing. You may even find that your life is less complicated without them. Draw the line and let your family know that future relationships will be based on love AND respect, or there will be no future relations. You won't regret it. -- BEEN THERE, DONE THAT, KNOXVILLE, TENN. DEAR BEEN THERE: People who have spent a lifetime trying to please others may find your recommendations difficult to put into practice. Habits can become so entrenched that they are hard to break without coaching and positive reinforcement. That is why I advise those who feel constantly put upon to consider taking classes in assertiveness training.

amount in return. 3 stars AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Emotions will get you thinking about your future and your personal life. You can enhance the relationships that mean the most to you by spending time with a loved one or making changes to your home or family. 3 stars PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Tread carefully when in conversation with a competitive person. Miscommunication will have a huge affect on a partnership you have been trying to develop. Keep your thoughts private and observe what others do and say. 4 stars Birthday Baby: You have charisma, charm and leadership ability. You are aggressive and persuasive.
