fl Horoscope
Happy Birthday: Don’t take anything for
granted this year. You have the drive, stamina
and work ethic to pull off whatever you want to
pursue. Your desire and energy to complete what
you start will take you the distance. Be proud
and fear nothing and you will win the respect and
admiration of others. Your numbers are 7, 13,
23, 27,33, 36
• ARIES (March 21-April 19): You are
probably overreacting to something someone
said or did. Put yourself in another environment
that will take you out of your current situation and
give you timq to think. Helping others will stabilize
you. 3 stars
• TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Sitting idle,
waiting on someone who won't budge is a waste
of time. Go it alone and you will accomplish more
in the end. Don't let personal issues stand in the
way of your pursuits. 3 stars
O GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Put everything
you've got into a plan you've wanted to develop.
You will have what it takes to make things happen
and the imagination to help you deliver your idea
with great enthusiasm and confidence. 3 stars
• CANCER (June 21-July 22): Look at the
existing possibilities and you will see that a few
minor changes can be to your advantage. Take
note of what close friends, children and family
tell you. Sometimes it's the encouragement you
receive that makes the difference. 5 stars
• LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Calm down and
keep your thoughts to yourself. Observe rather
than letting your emotions or jealousy cause you
to make a costly mistake. Don’t let someone you
love get away with something you don’t agree
with - talk matters through rationally. 2 stars
• VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You will make
headway today. You can make personal plans,
spice up your look or change your lifestyle or your
job with success today. Don't hold back or wait for
another time to make your move. 4 stars
• LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct 22): Talk is cheap
and not always beneficial and today that is
exactly how you should regard what's being said
to you. Put your time into developing something
that interests you. Children, travel and learning
will all play a role in your life today. 3 stars
• SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Keep things
low key or you may find yourself in a predicament
that will slow you down or leave you vulnerable.
Stand up for your rights but don’t waste your time
arguing. Do what’s best for you, not someone
else 3 stars
• SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Not too
much will go unnoticed, so be careful what you
say and do, especially around friends, neighbors
and relatives. You will be limited if you exaggerate
Backtracking may be required but it isn't likely to
help you smooth things over entirely. 3 stars
• CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Give
and take will work out splendidly for you today
You will have the mastermind of a genius when
it comes to finance, legal matters or settlements.
You've got what it takes to make subtle changes
that will enhance your position and make you a
stdr 4 stars
• AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Choose
your words wisely. Talk may be cheap but it
will backfire if you address emotional situations
negatively. Listen to opposing information. Your
willingness to compromise will make your life
cosior 2 stars
• PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You know
what you want, so don't waste time pussyfooting
around the issues that concern you. Money is in
the picture but will come to you through a most
unusual source. Be grateful for what you receive
and sorrowful for what you deny yourself. 5 stars
SCHOOL
Westfield student 'Russian' out to
help make the world a better place
By DON MONCRIEF
Journal Managing Editor
Chances are Keenan Malone
will never be mistaken as a
Russian exchange student, but he
still might try out his newfound
- albeit unpolished - accent on a
student or two.
Malone, a Westfield School
senior, played a delegate from
the country as part of the Global
Young Leaders Conference held
in Washington, D.C., some time
ago.
The GYLC as described by its
website is a format “designed to
educate, inspire and motivate stu
dents by giving them the opportu
nity to explore cultural differenc
es firsthand, challenge diplomatic
skills daily, build confidence and
enhance decision-making skills in
an exciting atmosphere that is
challenging and fun.”
At Malone’s level, he said
that basically boiled down to a
meeting(s) for him together with
the other 13 Russian-designated
students - others were also picked
to represent other countries as a
team (based on conference pic
tures on the web they numbered
about 100 strong).

Beforehand they were given
a topical issue. For instance, he
said one was global warming.
“We then decided what our
(Russian) views (policy) would
be,” he said, adding they could
change some things but really
had to toe the party line to make
it realistic. “Then we would
go into simulations with other
countries and then go through
that.”
The goal he said was to make
for a better world, i.e. get laws/

bills passed, which he said they
were successful at getting a “few”
through.
The whole thing culminated
with a global summit for all at
the simulated “United Nations”.
“It was more like they were
trying to get us to open our eyes,”
he said of the experience over
all, “notice everything going on
around us in the world.”
Chances are he knew a little bit
about that - at least in terms of
the U.S. - going in. He was born
in Johnson City, Tenn., moved
to Macon periodically and stayed
there for five years before mov
ing to Warner Robins. His father
is Dr. K. Scott Malone of Middle
Georgia Orthopaedic Surgery and
Sports Medicine, a subsidiary of
Houston Orthopaedic Surgery
and Sports Medicine.
Keenan is also a basketball
player for the Hornets but the
future for him, he said, doesn’t
rest in sports or following in his
father’s footsteps. He said he
wanted to enter the “information
technology” field. “Anything to
do with computers,” he said. “I
really like computers a lot.”
Naturally. That, too, is like a
second language.
