As a kid one of my favorite TV sitcoms was Hogan’s Heroes. Set in a German POW camp during World War II a group of really sharp Allied prisoners of war (most of them fliers who were shot down or parachuted to safety) were humorously and cleverly outsmarting their dimwitted and bumbling Nazi jailers.

guide to the stars WEEK OF July 17-23
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
The rain has you feeling rejuvenated. You’re ready to tango in the street with a stranger at the next Arts Crawl. With passive Mercury and aggressive Mars in your cosmic realm, it’s not the time to make short-term career or educational decisions as they may blur your long-term goals. Keep dancing … though.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
It’s a bittersweet summer for Leo. You don’t thrive well in sticky situations, and G here isn’t talking about El Nino’s muggy vices. You may want to dive into a personal situation, but take note of how important this relationship is to you and your family, Not sure? Then stealthily prance away from the situation and take a...

Welfare dependency and its unprivileged offspring
Part 2 of 2
Last week I explored the notion of privilege in relation to racial identity, achievement and children raised in broken homes. The scientific consensus is that success and mental health are greatly heightened when children of all races are raised by both their biological mother and father.
Let’s move along to other correlations. In 1760 Benjamin Franklin observed in his travels around the world “the more public provisions were made for the poor, the less they provided for themselves, and of course became poorer.
