Chocolates and fl owers may be staples of Valentine's Day, but many couples take it one step further and dine out on February 14.

According to the Retail Advertising and Marketing Association's Valentine's Day Consumer Intentions and Actions Survey, 34.6 percent of respondents in-dicated that dining out would be part of

their Valentine's Day agenda.A romantic dinner is an ideal capper

for a day geared around love and affec-tion. But Valentine's Day is a busy night for many restaurants, so it pays to heed the following advice to ensure this spe-cial night is memorable for all the right reasons.

· Make reservations well in advance.

Expect Valentine’s Day to be a busy night for dining out and plan ahead.

Dining out is especially popular on Val-entine's Day, so call several weeks in ad-vance to secure your spot. Also, do not underestimate the draw of all types of restaurants on Valentine's Day. People who were not able to get a table at their fi rst choices may trickle into chain restau-rants or smaller establishments in search of an easy meal. If you think your lesser-known haunt will not be packed, think again. Always play it safe by making a reservation early.

· Expect some crowding. Restaurants tend to add extra tables on Valentine's Day, when they expect an infl ux of custom-ers. Dining rooms may be more packed than usual, and you may not have a choice of where you will be seat-ed. Even a reservation does not guarantee you won't have to wait for a table. Be patient upon arriving at the restaurant, and consider wait time when factoring in childcare.

· Be fl exible with the menu. Price-fi xed menus are commonplace on nights when there will be a large turnover of custom-ers in a short amount of time. These menus allow restaurants to stock up on the necessary ingredients and cook en masse. Diners may fi nd that price-fi xed menus offer a limited selection, and their favorite dishes may not be available. But knowing this in advance can reduce feel-ings of disappointment. Rest assured there should be several options that ap-peal to different palates.

· Be patient with servers. Valentine's Day is a busy night for staff at the restau-rant, particularly servers who must be the liaison between the kitchen staff and din-ers. The sheer volume of customers can test the skills of even the most veteran servers. Many Valentine's Day diners do not eat out regularly and will need extra guidance. Servers may be called on to snap photos of couples with cell phones or linger at certain tables. Use idle time at your table to engage in romantic con-versation and plan the rest of the evening.

· Consider your budget. Diners can ex-pect to pay a premium for dining out on Val-entine's Day. Select a lower-priced restau-rant if your budget is on the smaller side.

· Be on time. Be-ing respectful of your

reservation will not only benefi t you, but also it is a courtesy to fellow diners who will be sitting at your table later in the evening. While you may want to linger over dessert, try not to linger too long.

· Promptly store leftovers. If you take a doggie bag home from dinner, stash it in the refrigerator as soon as possible to prevent foodborne illnesses. If you will be going out dancing or to a movie after din-ner, it may be best to skip the doggie bag altogether.

Valentine's Day is a busy night for din-ing out. Patience, courtesy and fl exibil-ity are traits that can keep your evening moving along smoothly. ✦

Make the most of your night out this Valentine’s Day

A romantic dinner is an ideal capper fora day geared around love and affection.

Exploring the connection between the heart and love

Hearts and Valentine’s Day are forever intertwined. One of the most recognizable symbols of love is the modest heart, and hearts adorn candy boxes and cookies while paper hearts are pinned to doors or windows as a symbol of Valentine’s Day. Young valentines may share candy hearts printed with silly sentiments.

A symbolic heart bears no resemblance to an anatomi-cal heart, and yet it is used to represent the deepest feel-ings of affection a person can share. Some may wonder just how the emotions of love became tied up in the shape of a heart, even though it’s widely known that the brain, and not the heart, governs affections.

In ancient times, people believed that the heart was the center of all human emotions. Since the heart is promi-nently located in the center of the chest and the middle of the body, it became the cornerstone of human feelings. Love is considered to be one of the most profound and strongest human emotions, therefore it was reasoned

Some may wonder just how the emotions of love became tied up in the shape of a heart, even though it’s widely known that the brain, and not the heart, governs affections.

In ancient times, people believed that the heart was the center of all human emotions. Since the heart is promi-nently located in the center of the chest and the middle of the body, it became the cornerstone of human feelings. Love is considered to be one of the most profound and strongest human emotions, therefore it was reasoned

that the feeling must emanate from the heart.Surprisingly, the heart has not always been the only

organ associated with love. During the Middle Ages, the heart was deemed a useless organ. Followers of the Greek physician Galen theorized that the liver actually was the seat of the soul and love.

The first depictions of a symbolic heart date back to the 11th century, when the heart was drawn to resemble a pinecone held upside down with the point facing up-ward. The scalloped heart that is more familiar today first arose in the early 14th century. Around the same time, the heart was depicted with the point facing down-ward and the indentation at the base.

Naturally, as time passed and more was learned about human anatomy, it became obvious that the brain was the seat of all emotion and thought processes. However, as the brain was something intangible in a living body in ancient times, and the beating heart could be much more readily monitored - with a pulse rate speeding up when a person is excited or aroused - it’s easy to see how the link between the heart and love has endured.

Although the human heart is not bright red like sym-bolic hearts, that was the color chosen. Red has long been associated with passion, so it made sense to depict the heart in a bright red hue.

Many other theories have been offered regarding the symbolic heart and its representation of love. While there’s no definitive correlation between love and hearts, the heart has become an accepted symbol of the emotion and the season of romance. ✦

People once thought that the heart was responsible for emotions, including love.

Go green at the game

Sporting events are often steeped in tradition. The teams battling it out have their own histories, but the fans in atten-dance no doubt have their own customs as well. Many parents make attending certain sporting events with their kids a family tradition, while other fans may wear a favorite hat or jersey to the game no matter how many miles such attire has on it.

But even if you and your fellow sports enthusiasts already adhere to your own unique traditions, one way to improve on an already fun experience is to embrace eco-friendly behaviors the next time you cheer on the home team. The following are a handful of ways you can go green at the game.

· Carpool with fellow fans. If yours is a sports-obsessed community, chances are strong a neighbor, relative or friend will

be heading to the big game this weekend. Instead of traveling separately, carpool to the game with fellow fans who live near-by. This cuts back on fuel consumption, saving you and your fellow fans money in the process, and can reduce the air pol-lution that is produced by congested traf-fic. In addition to saving on fueling costs, carpooling to the game also will save you money on parking, which can be very ex-pensive at big-time sporting events.

· Tailgate with the environment in mind. Tailgating is a tradition for many sports fans who simply can’t imagine at-tending a game without first gathering with friends in the parking lot to enjoy some great food and even better com-pany. Before hosting your next tailgate party, choose locally produced foods to feed your guests. Such foods, which can include everything from vegetables to the beef you use to make the perfect tailgate-worthy hamburgers, don’t need to be shipped across the country to end up on your plate, which means less fuel was used by the food supplier than if the food was shipped from elsewhere in the country.

· Don’t discard your tailgate leftovers.

It’s tempting to simply throw away any food leftover when the time comes to leave the tailgate and go watch the game. But discarded food will eventually end up in landfills, where it will produce a harm-ful greenhouse gas known as methane. Instead of tossing leftovers at the end of a tailgate, store them in sealable con-tainers and put them on ice in a cooler so they don’t spoil. You can then enjoy a postgame snack or simply have some leftovers to eat later in the week.

· Go tech with your tickets. In lieu of traditional paper tickets, many venues now allow entry to fans with e-tickets that can be scanned right from your smartphone. Such tickets include bar codes that can be scanned just like oth-ers items you might pay for at a grocery store or retailer. The added bonus of e-tickets on your smartphone is you are less likely to forget your smartphone on your dresser at home than you might be to leave paper tickets behind.

Sports fans may think nothing can im-prove the experience of seeing their fa-vorite team in person. But doing so in an eco-friendly way can make the day that much more enjoyable. ✦

Dental braces have been used for de-cades to correct various alignment and spacing issues in the teeth. Braces can be crucial to the future of one's oral health and prevent serious issues down the line.

Roughly 25 percent of the people in North America who get braces are adults. But braces still are geared toward young people and getting them on the road to straight and properly aligned teeth early on.

Braces correct a number of problems, including realigning the jaw and alleviat-ing overcrowding of teeth. Crooked teeth can trap food and debris between them, making it harder to floss and brush. Wearing braces also corrects the bite. If teeth or jaws are not aligned correctly, it can lead to difficulty chewing food or create jaw muscle pain. Braces also may boost self-confidence because they can remedy appearance issues that may prove embarrassing.

Parents eager to get their children on the road to straighter teeth may wonder when is the right time to get their kids braces. Many kids are getting braces ear-lier and earlier, but when to get braces typically depends on the child and the shape of his or her teeth.

The American Association of Ortho-dontics recommends that children see an orthodontist for an evaluation by age sev-en. The best time for braces will be when the orthodontist and parents collectively decide it's time to correct the misalign-ment of a child's teeth.

Some orthodontists prefer a two-stage

approach to orthodontic treatment. They may use a dental appliance or a prelimi-nary amount of braces to begin moving the teeth while a child still has most of his primary teeth. The second stage begins when all the permanent teeth are in. The thought is to shorten the overall duration of treatment.

Other orthodontists follow the tradi-tional approach of putting on braces once all the primary teeth have fallen out. This occurs between ages nine and 14. This is often a less expensive approach because braces need only be applied and removed once.

A number of studies have shown that, for common problems alleviated with orthodontic work, youngsters are better off waiting until all of their permanent teeth have come in. Antonio Secchi, a pro-fessor of orthodontics at the University of Pennsylvania, notes that if parents choose to treat crooked teeth too early, the child may need another phase of intervention a few years down the road.

Some problems, like crossbites, over-bites or severe overcrowding, warrant early intervention. Scheduling an orth-odontic visit early on means children can get the care they need when they need it. The orthodontist will be able to monitor how teeth are growing in and map out the best treatment plan for all.

Braces can help fix an imperfect smile and alleviate oral health concerns. Parents should speak to a dentist or make an ap-pointment with an orthodontist to evalu-ate their children's treatment needs.

Severity of overcrowding as well as bite issues will dictate when a child should get braces.

What is the right age for braces?

ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20There is no harm in being ambitious,

Aries. But a little humility to accompany that ambition can go a long way. Accept any recognition you earn in an appropri-ate manner.

TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21Your desires make it seem like any-

thing is within reach this week, Taurus. You may have to work a little harder to achieve your goals, but hard work is its own reward.

GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21Postpone chores that are not essen-

tial, Gemini. This way you can make the most of your upcoming free time with friends and family. You deserve a little break now and again.

CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22Cancer, try to avoid stretching yourself

too thin in the coming weeks. Your am-bition and energy are at an all-time high, but if you do not slow down, you can easily get burnt out.

LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23It’s impossible for people to try to con-

tain all of your energy this week, Leo. Direct your energy in a positive way and use it to reach your goals.

VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22Express your feelings without any in-

hibition, Virgo. Others will appreciate your honesty, especially if you employ some tact when sharing your opinions.

LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23Libra, no matter how crazy your life is

right now, you still manage to come out looking no worse for wear. You have a handy way of making lemonade out of sour lemons.

SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22Your long-term career opportunities

are looking good, Scorpio. If you do what makes you happy, you will always end up on top and financial rewards will follow.

SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21Sagittarius, although you see lucrative

career opportunities at every bend, you are not ready to make a big change. You will know when the moment has come to make a change.

CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20Proceed gently if you want to make

any real progress, Capricorn. You’re feeling more optimistic, but you still need to exercise caution. Common sense can keep you grounded.

AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18Aquarius, friends may arrive at your

home with plans for fun and adventure. Any kind of celebration or social situa-tion is what you crave right now. Go ahead and enjoy yourself.

PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20Don’t worry about a potential conflict,

Pisces. In due time you will realize this was nothing to get worked up about.

Horoscope Did you know? Soccer, or football as it is known

throughout much of the world, is played across the globe. With millions of fans, soccer is one of the most popu-lar sports in the world.

Romantic films to watch together this Valentine’s Day

Couples celebrate Valentine’s Day in many different ways. For some the idea of dinner out followed by a stroll arm-in-arm seems the epitome of romance, while others may want to go out dancing or engage in a favor-ite hobby.

Valentine’s Day also can be a romantic endeavor if a couple chooses to spend time at one with each other watching a romantic movie. The following are a handful of love-inspired movies that can add a special something to Valentine’s Day festivities.

· The Notebook: Author Nicholas Sparks has a way of taking the everyday experiences in a person’s life and making them relatable and heartbreaking in a pluck-at-your-heartstrings sort of way. His novel “The Note-book” won the hearts of many and seemed a natural to be adapted to film. Starring Ryan Gosling and Ra-chel McAdams, the movie illustrates how love can last through the years and even survive an Alzheimer’s di-agnosis.

· The Proposal: In order to remain in the country, a demanding New York-based book editor (Sandra Bull-ock) asks her brow-beaten assistant (Ryan Reynolds) to marry her. Their tumultuous relationship involves a trip to Alaska to meet his family.

· An Affair to Remember: Romantic melodramat-ic master Cary Grant falls in love with Deborah Kerr aboard a cruise ship while they are traveling with other people. They agree to meet at the top of the Empire State Building in six months if they have ended their relation-ships and are ready to commit to each other. Grant makes it to the rendezvous spot, but an injured Kerr nev-er shows as Grant assumes she has rejected the proposal.

· Say Anything: In pursuit of a woman he believes is out of his social league, Lloyd Dobler (John Cusack) cre-ates hope for the underdog in us all. The movie inspired teens to raise their boom box radios over their heads and blast romantic tunes to illustrate their love.

· The Wedding Singer: This quirky movie about a wed-ding singer who falls for a banquet waitress highlights the importance of loving each other for what makes you unique.

· Once: Attraction between the main characters comes by way of creative musical collaboration. Music proves to be an aphrodisiac, making the film and the song “Fall-ing Slowly” from its score so popular. This romantic tale helped take the film from the big screen to the Broadway stage.

· West Side Story: “West Side Story” is yet anoth-er homage to “Romeo and Juliet.” But the film made Shakespeare’s tragic love story relatable to audiences of

the 1960s.· My Best Friend’s Wedding: Julianne (Julia Roberts) is

called on to be the “best man” for her friend’s (Dermot Mulroney) wedding. Only when the wedding planning is underway does Julianne realize she is in love with her friend and needs to get him to fall for her instead.

· Never Been Kissed: A reporter goes undercover at a high school to discover something controversial and ends up being the subject of her story when she falls in love with her English teacher.

· Harold and Maude: A man in his twenties and a much older woman begin a romantic relationship and challenge social norms along the way.

· Annie Hall: Winner of four Academy Awards, “An-nie Hall” follows a comedian who is trying to maintain his relationship with a woman.

· Bridget Jones’ Diary: A modern adaptation of “Pride and Prejudice,” the movie tells the tale of a self-conscious woman who finds love in a man that seems to be her polar opposite.

· Ten Things I Hate About You: Filmmakers reinvent-ed “The Taming of the Shrew” in this teen comedy star-ring Julia Stiles and Heath Ledger.

· Casablanca: No romantic movie list would be com-plete without this wartime drama. Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman are in top form in this movie of chance meetings.

· The Princess Bride: Girl meets boy, girl detests boy, girl truly loves boy, and then girl loses boy. This fairy tale shares the purity of true love and happily ever after. ✦

2015 industry outlook

Guess Who?I was born on January 6, 1982 in

England. I attended Eton College with Prince William and performed as a soloist with the school's choir. That vocal training served me well when I landed a role in "Les Miserables."

As much of the world slowly recovers from the far-reaching economic down-turn that began in 2008, the International Monetary Fund has predicted a 3.2 per-cent growth for the global economy in 2015.

Some countries, including the United States, have already witnessed an uptick in industrial growth. But other nations are not seeing the same level of success. Slow growth and inflation is plaguing areas of South America. Trade surpluses in Ger-many are likely to shrink in 2015. There is still steady growth in areas of Asia, but China's projected 7.1 percent growth, though high compared to other nations, is the country's lowest in 15 years.

With regard to the American economy, job growth and more qualified people returning to the marketplace continue to benefit the economy. But uncertainty as to whether the Federal Reserve will begin to raise the federal funds rate in 2015 con-tinues to loom over the American econ-omy. The higher the federal funds rate, the more expensive it is to borrow money. Since the end of 2008, the federal funds rate has been unusually low. The low rate was essentially an emergency measure in the wake of the financial crisis, and it's still an unknown if the country's economy can survive without the low rate.

Forecasters are saying the demand side of the American economy will have solid growth, but the supply side is still sketchy. Higher taxes and a loss of benefits to low-er-income workers may impact the job market and overall economy.

But certain industries have emerged as the safest bets for employment possibilities and success in 2015. A recent survey from researchers at Michigan State University found certain job sectors anticipate strong hiring growth of recent college graduates and others with industry experience.

Growth in information services, which includes telecommunications, publishing, motion pictures, and broadcasting, is ex-pected to surge. Finance and insurance remain strong and safe bets for employ-ment as banks now will make up for cut-backs during the recession. Other strong employment contenders include manage-ment consulting, accounting, law, com-puter design, and engineering services.

Health and wellness services appear recession-proof as well. IBISWorld In-dustry Research notes pilates and yoga studios were highly resistant to the re-cession. With a predicted annual growth of 4.8 percent, these health and wellness industries are targeted for growth and in-creased success in 2015.

Pieces of the global economic puzzle are coming together while others are falling

out ofa the mix, and it should be interest-ing to see how the world economy reacts in the new year.

Did you know? Valentine's Day is a popular time of

the year to send greeting cards. Accord-ing to the Greeting Card Association, around 145 million Valentine's Day cards are exchanged annually. While that is an impressive number, Valen-tine's Day actually comes in second as the most popular card-giving occa-sion. Christmas tops the list with some 1.6 billion cards purchased, including boxed card varieties. Other popular oc-casions to send greeting cards include Mother's Day, Father's Day, gradua-tion, Easter, Halloween, Thanksgiving, and St. Patrick's Day.
