Claire-France Perez, Astrologer To The DC Madam Comments Regarding Her Case And Suicide

Outtakes and various other sundries

dc-madam2.jpgAstrologer, Claire-France Perez of ancientsky.com writes:

DC Madam: A Bloody Raw Deal

The DC Madame was our client.

Le Baraquel (a pseudonym) and I agreed to help out “pro bono” but had deep worries in working with this chart, and today’s reported suicide leaves us grieved, saddened for this dainty sort of person whose privacy mattered more than her reputation and life.

While Le Baraquel consulted her by Skype from Asia, I had her as a guest for dinner and a chart reading, and found her to have a head slightly in a fantasy-land, and I guess if you are waiting for the government to release your several millions in property holdings, you would stay in dreamland too, for as long as the situation was undecided.

Astrology And Television: German Broadcasters Look To The Stars

Outtakes and various other sundries

tv-watching.jpgGerman broadcasters look to the stars: Astrology gives clues to viewing habits

Scott Roxborough writes:

“It is not exactly the Nielsen Ratings: German broadcasters are looking to the stars for clues to their audiences’ viewing habits.

This week SevenOne Media, the marketing and ad sales arm of broadcasting giant ProSiebenSat.1, published its first Astrology Ratings. They matched up traditional audience data — who watches what and when — with viewers’ star signs…”

And here’s a sample:

Taurus (April 21-May 21)
The Taurean male wants suspense and action on the small screen but also likes the occasional sitcom. A female Taurean, however, is a channel surfer and watches everything. The one exception is erotic movies, where we see a 24% increase in market share among Taurean women.

Cell Phone Wet? Dropped In The Toilet? The Alcohol Thing Works! This And Other Tips For The Frugal

Tips

alcohol.jpgThis is my Saturn in Virgo tip:

If your cell phone gets wet… a little wet or even if it goes into the toilet or get washed in the washing machine, chances are it can be brought back to life. Just take the back off the phone, remove the SIM card and dip the whole thing in alcohol (I used 70% Isopropyl Alcohol not bourbon) and let it dry overnight. I left mine to dry a couple days but sure enough, I put the battery and the SIM card back in and it fired right up good as new.

Do you have a Saturn in Virgo tip for the frugal?

A Invitation And Appeal To All… Support The Troops!

Outtakes and various other sundries

gus ewokIt’s the soldier’s birthday this week and his son is under fire at war in Iraq. Considering I am hearing straight from the source, I can tell you with certainty that that the spin the press is putting on the current situation is egregiously wrong and demoralizing to the soldiers fighting there.

The soldier wants to snap pictures of people of all kinds being themselves, doing the regular things they do in life holding signs with encouraging messages. If you want to pose in a bikini, (Togi) that is okay too but no nudity - He has a wife he loves!

Book Review - Breakthrough Astrology: Transform Yourself And Your World By Joyce Levine

Outtakes and various sundries

Awhile back I put up a blog asking everyone to recommend astrology books for beginners and came across this one, Breakthrough Astrology: Transform Yourself And Your World by Joyce Levine that belongs on the list.

If you are studying, this is a top notch “cookbook” on the aspects and planets in the houses and signs. The writing is flawless. It is modern but not campy and the interpretation excellent all the way around. Most importantly the material while advanced is accessible to the beginner.

I don’t know Joyce but you can meet here here: Joyce Levine. You can also watch her here: Boston.com and witness her manner. This is someone you can learn astrology from for sure. Enjoy!

The Moon Is In Leo Or I Am A Terrible Parent - Libra Can’t Decide Which

Outtakes and various other sundries

I came walking into the living room and my son asked, “What’s a good sentence for humble?”

I started singing that old Mac Davis song, “Oh Lord, its hard to humble! When you’re perfect in every way! I can’t stand to look in the mirror! ‘Cause I get better looking each day!”

You can hear him sing it with the muppets before Jim Henson died and thy ruined them. Just start the video 44 seconds in or so. And oh yeah, he used the sentence. ;-)
