CELEBRIS REPORT ^^ MICHEL EULER I Associated Press People stroll at Trocadero square near the Eiffel Tower in Paris, May 25, as France gradually lifts its COVID-19 lockdown. Eiffel Tower to reopen after longest closure since WWII Workers are preparing the Eiffel Tower for reopening next week, after the corona- virus pandemic led to the iconic Paris land mark’s longest closure since World War II. France’s tourism industry is opening back up, but the 324-meter tall wrought-iron tower won’t immediately welcome visitors the way it did before the country went into lockdown in March. Only limited numbers of people will be allowed in when the Eiffel Tower opens again on June 25. Elevators to the top will be out of service, at least at first, and only the first and second floors will be accessible to the public. “At first, only visits by the stairs will be available,” Victoria Klahr, the spokes woman for the tower’s management, said Tuesday. Everyone over 11 years old will be required to wear face masks, and crowd control measures will be in place. The tower’s director told The Associated Press on Tuesday that he hopes access will be back to normal by August. A stringent cleaning operation is in place and will continue daily from next week. “There is a new protocol,” said Eiffel Tower hygiene consultant Alain Miralles. “The day cleaning teams will be able to clean all the points of contact every two hours, from the opening of the site to its closing,” Tourists planning trips to the City of Light are advised to book tickets to visit the Eiffel Tower online once the ticket office reopens Thursday. Associated Press ABOUT US AND OUR VALUES The public has a right to know, and The Times is dedicated to that principle and the “continued enlightenment and freedom of the people of North Georgia,” as engraved outside our building. The pursuit of truth is a fundamental principle of journalism. But the truth is not always apparent or known immediately. A professional journalist’s role is to report as completely and impartially as possible verifiable facts so readers can, based on their own knowledge and experience, determine what they believe to be the truth. That is often an ongoing pursuit as journalists work to uncover stories and follow those stories wherever they lead, regardless of preconceived ideas. The news they report is separate from the opinions shared in the pages of The Times, which include those by its editorial board, columnists, political cartoonists and readers who submit letters to the editor. The presentation of both news and opinions is designed to educate, entertain and foster community conversation. Readers are encouraged to challenge and sharpen their perceptions based on that presentation. And we encourage readers to do the same for us, offering news tips, criticisms and questions. As your honestly local news source, we serve our readers first.

She and I get along well, but she and her mom butt heads. My wife is disappointed Kate did not go straight to graduate school after college and doesn’t seem to have a plan. I trust that Kate will get it together. I did odd jobs for at least five years out of college before heading to business school, and that seems even more normal these days than it did then. I am not sure how to broker peace between these two. When I tell either of them to let things go, they suggest I am being sex ist. It has reached the point where I really only enjoy their company separately, which is too bad because it’s not a very large house. — Keeping the Peace Your wife is entitled to all her feelings, but she’s not entitled to dump her judg ments and unmet expectations on a fellow adult. Not even one who’s back home. It’s boundary time. Please set aside a time to have this out with your wife, when your daughter isn’t around and you’re calm and you don’t need to be somewhere anytime soon. “This is not about whether you’re right. It’s about your standing to judge an adult’s path through life. Plus, your frustration isn’t helping: It’s weighing you down, it’s weighing Kate down, it’s not motivating her to do or decide anything faster, and it’s exhausting for me to watch. And I’d be a hypocrite to condone it, because I took time to sort things out at that age. “So: Can you see any value in letting go and trusting Kate?” If it’s an absolute no, then please con sider family therapy. Go without your wife if she refuses. I find myself wondering whether she just wanted her nest to stay empty, and com plaints about Kate’s career choices are easier ones to express. As for the “being sexist” charge, perhaps drop “let things go” from your lexicon. Readers’ suggestions: — As someone who went straight to grad school after undergrad, I’m not con vinced it was the truly better decision. Older students in my cohort had a better developed sense of why they were in the program and what they wanted to get out of it. — When you tell them to “let things go,” you diminish things that are clearly important to them that they want to dis cuss, and it’s patronizing. If you weren’t invited into their conversation, then stay out of it — your opinion on every little thing is not needed. — I am a professor and also the gradu ate coordinator, and I urge students not to go directly to graduate school. Without any experience, often they are over- credentialed; employers would prefer the college graduate that they can train. Chat with Carolyn online at noon each Friday at www.washingtonpost.com.

For our digital subscription offerings, go to gainesvilletimes.com/subscribe ARIES (March 21-April 19). Be on the lookout for ways to re purpose the past. Discarded scraps from one project/rela tionship/era can be reworked and turned into something new. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Giving is the theme. Give to the point where it feels good, and then go further. It shouldn’t hurt a lot, but it needs to hurt a little. The spiritual benefit of sacrifice can’t come if no sacrifice has been made. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Study and cultural exploration will bring you good fortune. You will feel determined to do your unbiased research, and you will refrain from forming an opinion until you have all of the facts. CANCER (June 22-July 22). All superheroes know that most of the gig is hiding your identity until it’s time to shine. You’ve enormous strength and power; that’s a given. Knowing when to use it is the art. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ll have ideas, and you need the right people to bounce them off of. People who absorb your energy and agree with you are not good bouncing prospects. Look for the hard and deflective types. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You can acknowledge your emotions without slavishly following their impulses. Your maturity allows you to objec tively witness yourself. Your feelings will indicate how in line you are with your ethics and ideals. LIBRA (Sept. 23-0ct. 23). Though it feels safe and se cure when others agree with you, it’s not going to help you grow. You’ll sharpen your wits and strengthen your case when you run up against those who disagree. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Albert Camus said it’s neces sary to fall in love, “if only to provide an alibi for all the ran dom despair you are going to feel anyway.” Today’s events pose the question: Which comes first, the circumstance or the feeling? SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). There is something you are tired of carrying by yourself. Someone else can help you lug the burden, or even better, cast it off. But you must be willing to share it. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) The research suggests that improving your weaknesses, while noble in intent, is far less effective than leveraging your strengths. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Because of the complexity within the crevices of the hu man heart, people fit together unexpectedly and in ways so particular that they would be impossible to duplicate. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Remember when you fell in love with a movie character? Remember when you be lieved in a book? Something doesn’t actually need to hap pen to feel real. Use this to your benefit.
