Pisces 2005 Horoscope |
 As the New Year arrives, Pisces, you'll be quite intent on making a name for yourself within a group situation. You'll do a fine job of it, and you'll be remembered for some time to come for your efforts. During January, you'll be focused on joint financial situations and intimate relationships, all of which will work out quite well as long as you're not afraid to ask for -- and take -- the advice of an elder. The new Moon in your own sign on March 10th will call your attention to your physical self -- and while you in particular should never ignore your emotions, you might want to pay attention to the outer you, just for a while. During spring, and most especially in April, monetary changes could be en route. Does that mean you'll be pinching pennies? Not at all. In fact, if you're smart about it, you may have more money to spend frivolously than you've had in some time. After the 15th of April, thanks to Venus in steadfast Taurus and your house of communications, you'll be especially persuasive, too. Don't even think about giving up on any argument. You're ready to make constructive changes, and to make them quickly. You go! Once summer arrives, you can rest assured that you'll be entertained -- and quite amused! At least one new suitor will come your way after the 21st of July -- someone who's as home- and family-oriented as yourself. You'll also be willing to apply yourself completely to getting the job done at work, but with family issues so pleasant, who'd blame you if you were late -- or even absent -- for a few days? As the year draws to a close, one-on-one relationships will still keep you busy, but with the solar eclipse of October 3rd, and the lunar eclipse of the 17th, you'll shift to money matters -- joint financial issues in particular. If you're not happy with the way your half of the money is being handled, take back control of the checkbook and don't apologize for it. Be careful with finances during the holidays, but do enjoy yourself. What are the secrets of your personality?

ON WATERBOARDING Sultan Knish has a very good post about waterboarding. While I am personally against torture, he makes some very strong and valid points. I hope everyone goes and reads the whole thing ! Here's some excerpts : United States prisoners have been tortured or assaulted in virtually every war in the 20th century from WW2 to Korea to Vietnam to Iraq to Afghanistan. The fact that the United States respected the rights of Nazi, Imperial Japanese, Communist and Islamist prisoners did not in any way restrain the followers of these totalitarian ideologies from abusing our captured soldiers. If anything it made it safer for them to do so knowing that there would be no retaliation. Some forms of psychological pressure are used by law enforcement on a day to day basis. There are people who experience psychological trauma after an encounter with law enforcement. But if law enforcement personnel were not intimidating, they would be useless. In preparation for the 1972 Munich Oly...
