HISTORY “The way of a superior man is three-fold; virtuous, he is free from anxieties; wise, he is free from perplexities; bold, he is free from fear.” Confucius, Chinese philosopher (551-479 B.C.) BY JACQUELINE BIGAR KING FEATURES SYNDICATE Note: Bigar’s Stars is based on the degree of your sun at birth. The sign name is simply a label astrologers put on a set of degrees for convenience. For best results, readers should refer to the dates following each sign. A baby born today has a Sun in Gemini and a Moon in Pisces. Happy birthday for Wednesday, June 18, 2014: This year you often feel pressured by superiors and their ex- pectations. You might be far more capable than you realize. Take a risk and go out on a limb; be willing to do something out of your comfort zone. If you are single, you’ll attract someone from work or from a commitment. Be aware of the problems you could encounter by mixing your private life with your public image before jumping in. If you are attached, you are likely to enjoy being around your significant other more often. Pisces can irritate you, as you can’t read him or her clearly. The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) ★★★ — You’ll wake up with a new perspective. A dream might have provided a solution to a problem. When you initially present this idea, you could receive a negative response. After a lively discussion, how- ever, an agreement is likely to be reached. Tonight: As you would like it. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) ★★★★★ — You see the potential in seizing the moment. You know what is possible, and you’ll try to move forward in a progressive manner. A suggestion that you initially had doubted will prove to work. Be willing to give credit where credit is due. Tonight: Contin- ue as you have. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) ★★★★ — Your pensive side will emerge, and it might encourage a novel way of approaching someone you look up to. The best thing to do is try it out and see where it takes you. Your more dynamic personality will shine through. Tonight: Be willing to work till the wee hours. CANCER (June 21-July 22) ★★★★ — Investigate different solutions in order to achieve a certain end result. You could be very pleased by what emerges. Laughter surrounds a loved one. Your upbeat attitude and your willingness to let others chip in will create good interactions. Tonight: Reach for the stars. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) ★★★★ — Deal with a partner directly if you desire certain results. It is easier to work as a team than it is to work alone. A discussion might point to an adjustment being made, so try not to get discouraged. Set aside any uncomfortable feelings. Tonight: Dinner for two. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ★★★★ — Someone could be pushing you too hard right now. You might not be sure which way to proceed, even though you’ll have a limited number of choices. Curb a tendency to funnel your anger into spending money or partaking in other indulgences. Tonight: Let the fun begin. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ★★★★ — Pace yourself, as you have a lot of ground to cover. You might not be sure how to prioritize your tasks. Your anger could emerge from out of the blue in a discussion with a higher-up. Find a mutually acceptable solution for both of you. Tonight: Have some fun. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ★★★★ — You might want to create a new beginning. Your ability to manifest much more of what you desire will materialize. You could be sitting on some anger that might trigger a strong reaction when deal- ing with foreign elements. Tonight: Indulge your imagination. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ★★★★ — You’ll be in- volved with a deceptive situation that surrounds your home and/or a family member. As a result, you could have difficul- ty rooting out the cause. Ask questions, and the answers might change your thinking. Use care with your finances. Tonight: Head home. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ★★★★ — Make a point to help others (as well as yourself) understand a confusing project or idea. Your outlook could change once you grasp what is being said. You might not want to assume the lead here, so let someone else step in. Tonight: Don’t let some- one else’s frustration get to you. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ★★★★ — You’ll see through a ruse, but whether you decide to let others in on it will depend on several factors. Consider the cost of keeping this deception to yourself. A friend could be involved, but you might prefer that he or she figures it out without your help. Tonight: Out late. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) ★★★★ — You seem to know the right way to go. Your creativity will point to the correct path for an emotionally trying situation. A friend could reverse his or her support with a critical issue. Trust yourself and your decisions. Tonight: Be the lead player. HOROSCOPE BY TANNAH HIRSCH AND BOB JONES TRIBUNE CONTENT AGENCY Some declarer play techniques come with fancy names. Despite the name, some of them are quite simple. The “Vienna Coup” is one such fancy name, but it is only a simple unblocking play. South ducked the opening heart lead in dummy, losing to East’s king, and a heart was returned. South won his queen and took stock. A 3-3 club split would not help in a no trump contract — he couldn’t afford another loser — so he needed a 4-2 club split or worse. If the defender with the long clubs also held the king of diamonds, he would not be able to defend the position. South cashed the ace-queen of spades, followed by the ace of diamonds (the Vienna Coup). He played a heart to dummy’s ace and cashed the king of clubs before running all of dummy’s spades. He came down to the queen of diamonds and two of clubs opposite the ace-eight of clubs. West could not keep the king of diamonds and two clubs. He discarded the diamond king, and South had his slam! Note that had the ace of diamonds not been cashed, West could defeat the slam by discarding a low diamond. The ace would drop the king, but there would be no entry to the good queen. Three days from today, June 21, there is a national promotion for the benefit of the Alzheimer’s Association. It is called “The Longest Day” and is a 16-hour bridge game with rotating players. Many bridge clubs throughout the country are participating. Please contact your local club, or www. acbl.org, to see how you can help fight this terrible disease. All levels of play are most welcome.

For those unfamiliar, the muffuletta is a giant sandwich on a soft Sicilian bread of the same name that is layered with mortadella, salami, moz- zarella, ham or cappicola and provolone, and spilling over with the olive salad — giardinera vegetables and olives tangy with vinegar and tamed by olive oil. This recipe is one I created after the trip. Look for the giardinera — marinated vegetables — on the grocery shelves near pickles and olives. The jar should include cauliflower, onions, carrots, celery and peppers. You can, of course, make your own by chop- ping the raw vegetables and marinating in vinegar and oil or Italian salad dressing. For the olive salad 1 jar (about 7 ounces) pimiento- stuffed olives, sliced 1 jar (about 6 ounces) marinated vegetables 3 whole roasted pimientos, diced 3 to 6 cherry peppers or pepperoncini (optional) 2 cloves of garlic, minced fine 2 tablespoons olive oil 2 tablespoons pickling liquid from olive jar 1 teaspoon dried oregano ½ teaspoon cracked black pepper For the sandwich 1 round loaf Italian bread Olive oil ¼ pound each of sliced cappicola or ham, Genoa salami, mortadella, provolone and mozzarella cheeses Shredded lettuce and sliced tomato (optional) Combine all the olive salad ingredients in a glass bowl, cover tightly and refrigerate overnight. Split the bread in half horizontally. Remove excess bread if desired. Brush both cut sides with olive oil. Layer meats and cheeses on the bottom half. Top with olive salad, then the top of the bread. If desired, wrap in foil and heat 25 minutes in a 300-degree oven. Open and add lettuce and tomato if desired. Press top back on lightly and slice into eighths. Makes 8 servings.
