The Castlegar Sun Wednesday, November 18, 1992 current compilation of the most iar thi people do, edited by Chuck Shepherd. Proof that true stories are weirder than made-up stories. LEAD STORY ~ Researchers at Comell Univer- sity recently patented an artificial dog that would speed up the breed- ing of fleas for lab use. Previously, the lab required 25 live, severely infected dogs to breed the 12,000 fleas per day needed in studies of humans’ and animals' allergic reac- tions to fleas. “WEIRD LAW — Colorcraft Corp., a photo pro- cessing firm, recently filed an appeal in federal court challenging a Florida worker compensation judge's ruling. The Jacksonville judge had ruled that Colorcraft employee Ruth Jan- drucko is entitled to full disability benefits because she becomes hyper- vigilant and “extremely” nervous in situations in which she might encounter black males in the work- place. Her stress disorder stems from a mugging incident in which she suf- fered a fractured vertebra. Colorcraft has so far been required to pay her more than $50,000 in disability ben- efits. -- Ronald St. John received $290,000 in April in Middletown, Conn., to settle his lawsuit against his former psychologist over the death of St. Johp's daughter. St. John had stabbed the 7-year-old to death, but was found not guilty by reason of insanity. He blamed her death on the psychologist, who had not been available for consultation while St. John was having the breakdown that led to the murder. HOROSCOPES November 15 - 21 ARIES - March 21/April 20 If you haven't heeded common sense On money matters in recent months, you have only yourself to blame now: An ainexpected, and pos- sibly quite hefty, expense is about to drop out of the blue. There could be some confusion over a future work project. Keep communications clear. TAURUS - April 21/May 21 Misunderstandings can arise far too easily. A trip may have to be can- celled. And if you are traveling, it would be wise to double check all arrangements. Follow a business or money-making tip on Wednesday and your initiative will almost cer- tainly be rewarded. GEMINI - May 22/June 21 Long-term prospects are likely to be under discussion. Personal matters could be difficult and need great pru- dence. But the general outlook seems to be much brighter than imagined. If you are in a creative field, as many Geminis are, this will be a time to make great strides in your work. CANCER - June 22/July 22 Don't confuse a busy schedule with misfortune. You tend to feel sorry for yourself when you have too much to do. But, think for a mo- ment, didn’t you want to achieve all of these goals you are pursuing? It may be a long path to getting what you want, so you might as well enjoy yourself on the way there. LEO — July 23/August 23 This will be a good week for enter- ing into long-term business commit- SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22 Try not to feel depressed or insecure just because don’t take much notice of you. could be some confusion over work and domestic interests. You'll feel a lot brighter towards the end of this week when you find it much easier to communi- cate with your partner. Something you've been waiting for finally comes in the mail. SAGITTARIUS — Nov 2¥Dec 21 Some really happy and unexpected news from a friend will put you in a fantastic mood. A new relationship with a Léo or Taurus could blossom into a love affair! Try not to spend too much of your time involved in social activities, as you'have 4 lot of, family obligations you need to ful- fill. You will be introduced to a new kind of food. CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20 You feel somewhat restless and will possibly be making interesting plans for later in the year, or perhaps even for the early months of 1993 Romance is in the cards and some newcomer could be making a big impact on your life. Things are going your way, but don’t rush any- thing. Try not to be sarcastic, espe- cially to Scorpios. AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18 Your relationship with a family member will grow stronger this week. Finances hold up well, maybe bringing very modest gains. How- ever, the week also has a quarrel- some appearance. So try to keep your distance and avoid unsettling ly at work. ments, or for making that are intended to show profits over a period of time. It’s not, how- ever, a very good week for entering into long-term social relationships. Be careful what you reveal about yourself — others are jealous. VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22 If you are expecting to keep appoint- ments this week, don’t be surprised if they are cancelled at the very last minute. Check befotehand that there’s been no misunderstanding about the time for meetings Especially over the weekend, avoid people who are superficial LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23 You will find yourself having a hard time concentrating on the daily rou- tine. That's because there are so many interesting things going on in your social life. Try to keep the two pec! PISCES -— Feb 19/March 20 Socially, the week ahead should be busy and interesting. You may take up a new hobby and widen your cir- cle of friends. You will find it much easier to make progress with some long-cherished plans. If you're look- ing for romance, this will be a good time to meet someone new. YOUR BIRTHDAY THIS WEEK The next 12 months: You probably have a clear idea of what you want to pursue in the com- ing year. With strong will and deter- mination (just two of Scorpio’s many valuable assets), you will get exactly what you want. Just be sure you don’t spend too much time on special projects. You could make your partner feel very left out. Just let him or her know how important Calvin ana Hobbes [ VORTEX GOGGLES ON? WERE WEGO!

Chevron has je ties into the ocean to protect under- ground pipes in its refinery near Manhattan Beach. Surfrider claims the jetties have altered the patterns of monster waves in the area and that Chevron should somehow compen- sate the area's surfers. Surfrider recently won a $5.8 million lawsuit against two paper mills for polluting the Pacific Ocean north of San Fran- cisco and thus harming surfers’ inter- ests. -- In August, the Wyoming Supreme Court ruled inati al a state law requiring a minor to forfeit his driver's license if convict- ed of an alcohol - or drug-related offense. The court said that was cruel and unusual puni -- A judge in Surrey, British Columbia, found Alison Menz not guilty of indecency against a Royal Canadian Mounted Police officer in June. To demonstrate her contempt for the officer, Menz had removed her clothing, cupped her breasts with her hands, and “offered” them to the officer. Said Judge Francie Howard, “Her action was basically akin to what is known as giving someone the finger.” CLICHES COME TO LIFE ~ Davenport, Iowa, police officer Wayne Dawson filed a lawsuit recently against the Donut Time shop over a January 1991 incident in which he slipped on ice on the shop's walkway. He had been taking a break in the shop and was about to go back on duty. -- Results of research at Memphis State University, released in April, showed that kids’ metabolism rates drop 40 percent faster while they are watching TV than it does while they are merely sleeping. Said a researcher, "If (the kids) watch enough TV, more than 2 1/2 hours a day, they'll gain weight just due to TV's impact on their metabolic rate." ACROSS 1. Unified body of matter 5.
