Overlooking the picturesque Navesink River stands one ofAmerica’s most elegant waterfront hotels. Built in 1928, thisnational landmark echoes the charm and grandeur

of the world’s grandest inns. The expansive upgrade of the MollyPitcher Inn has been no mean feat. The new Molly renovations—an outdoor 17,000 square foot promenade with formal gardens notunlike an exclusive Manhattan terrace, being just one—follow on the

heels of a multi-million dollar remake, that was completed in 2009, of the Inn’s sister property justdown the road, The Oyster Point Hotel, also owned and operated by JP Barry Hospitality, Inc.

Once perceived as a traditional wedding venue, The Oyster Point has adopted a more chic contemporary feel and fun, lively attitude. This redesign and rebranding resulted in a positive impact on our business,” according to Operations Manager Kevin M. Barry. Weddings, restaurant—including the new lounge—and corporate use have increased. Guest rooms now havefloor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the river and iPod docks, to name a few enhancements. Whileimprovements remain ongoing, the major work is complete.

“It was time to focus on the Molly Pitcher Inn,” Barry explains.

Work started on the Molly Pitcher Inn last yearwith upgrades to lighting in the hotel ballroomand banquet space. “While keeping within ourtraditional heritage,“ he says, “we upgraded to

elegant crystal chandeliers for a more luxurious ambiance.” Rich carpeting adornsthe ballroom floors, but wall-to-wall has been removed from guest rooms and re-placed with new flooring. All soft goods—bedding, draperies, wall paper, showercurtains, lamps—have been replaced and high definition televisions can be foundin all of the guest rooms.

A new grand promenade—replete with new railings and lamp posts and located off the bar and banquet areas—enables the hotel to realize a long heldwish to expand upon the use of its outdoor space and spectacular river views tooffer guests an incomparable outdoor experience...from dining seven days a weekto outdoor events, including weddings and other special occasions.

The new virtually-everything is based largely on customer feedback, along with creative input from staff and management, notes Rainey Alwell, JP BarryHospitality’s director of sales. “We read our guest comment cards daily, and takethem very seriously,” she says.

The Molly’s International Bar draws a large, eclectic clientele from all over the world that mixes with local regulars and weekend wedding groups. “You’ll hear all kinds ofdifferent stories and accents,” says Alwell. “Someone from Holland talking to someonefrom Rumson—very cosmopolitan.” The hotel’s renowned Sunday Brunch has been voted“Best Brunch in Central Jersey” by New Jersey Monthly for 15 consecutive years.

Both The Oyster Point Hotel and Molly Pitcher Inn boast their own marinas, and offerseasonal rentals, as well as transient boat slips for dock and dining, a rarity for this partof the Navesink River. In keeping with the “everyday” image, both facilities maintain a full calendar of events. Social Hour at the Molly’s International Bar, for example, features $3 beers and $6 martinis, as well as $8 Shrimp Cocktail and $5 Pecorino & Rosemary Dusted Fries, Monday thru Thursday from 4pm to 7pm. “We’re doing everything we can to make this a place you can go during the week and not just for aspecial event,” says Kevin.

While the two hotels now have extensive renovations in common, they have alwaysshared the same view. As Kevin explains, it’s not just of the beautiful Navesink River, but towards the standards of quality and service they offer to their guests.

Arts, entertainment, dining, specialevents, cultural happenings, songwriters in the park, entertainerson the street...Red Bank has them all, and more, to offer as

attractive reasons to come to town, but,thanks to the Red Bank Holistic LearningCenter (RBHLC), Tibetan monks performingBuddhist ceremonies and angel channelerstuning into the heavenly realm, on-going meta-physical connectors and “soul smorgasbords”are now in the mix. The Center is a work inprogress that has the potential of expandingthe definition of Red Bank as a regional destination for mind/body/spirit development.

According to founder Jeff Cherney, the current robust calendar of programs beingoffered is just the beginning of a concept thatcame in through the side door of his career asa pharmacist in Manhattan. A businessacquisition brought with it Best of Nature, asupply company with a wholesale line for the massage and body work market thatincluded clays, seaweeds, oils and otherproducts. Although he still holds his pharmacistlicense, Jeff’s interest has turned toward the

holistic approach to healing and, in 2007, he stopped practicing as a pharmacist to buildon that concept.

Located at the eastern end of River Street—aserene setting far from the bustle of BroadStreet and downtown—the warehouse half ofthe RBHLC building houses the wholesaleoperation of Best of Nature, along with a retailstore open to the public. The remaining space

is a warren of rooms for classes and programs in a wide range of subjectsfrom continuing education for massage therapists to a variety of classes andworkshops for yoga and fitness, energy healing, spiritual development andpersonal improvement. A roster of more than twenty-five instructors is on thewebsite (rbhlc.com), along with bios that present the backgrounds for Feng Shui consultants and energy clearers, spiritual facilitators, Reiki Masters,clairvoyants, healers, life coaches, yoga instructors, aura readers, a trademarked Inner Angel Alchemist to “tune in with the heavenly realm forhelp, healing and divine guidance,” and a growing list of other practitionersof holistic healing modalities.

Recently, Laraine Schigotzki brought To Your Health Holistic Spa and WellnessCenter to the RBHLC, leasing the facility three days a week to offer spa services (facials, massage and body treatments using only all-natural and/ororganic ingredients), as well as holistic health counseling, energy healing, andyoga and fitness classes. “We all innately have a wisdom we can learn to tapinto, “says Laraine. “I grew up understanding the relationship we have to ourown healing and to nature. It’s in my DNA to pass it on and educate peopleon how to benefit themselves.”

Jeff Cherney opened up his doors, on an hourly rental basis, to welcome practitioners who shared his idea of creating a place where people couldcome be part of a community dedicated to a holistic route to wellness. The RedBank Holistic Learning Center might be off the beaten track, but people arefinding a way to its door.

Hope and faith might very well be the imaginary cornerstone at the brand new town home of Rose Gomez, 38, a first time homeowner. This pastDecember, she moved into one of the 36-units of Cedar Crossing of Red Bank,the newly constructed, affordable housing devlopment located on Cedar Streeton the west side of town.

The single mother of two daughters—Fatima, 21 (who attends Bloomfield College) and Ashonti, 17—Gomez’s journey to homeownership was fraught with staggering burdens that might have caused the average person to falter along the way. First there was the eviction notice that Gomez received from one landlord. Relocating, she had toshare the tight quarters of a one-bedroom apartment with her daughters. Meanwhile, she was amassing bad credit.

“Thank God for Pastor Porter,” said Gomez, who is a member of Pilgrim Baptist Church inRed Bank, where Reverend Terrence K. Porter presides. Appointed by Red Bank Mayor,Pasquale Menna, Porter—president and chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Red Bank

Affordable Housing Corporation (RBAHC), the developer of Cedar Crossing—encouraged hisparishioner to enter into the lottery pool of applicants vying for one of the new units. In the October10, 2010 lottery, Gomez drew lucky number 22 which allowed her to start the application process.

“I went to credit counseling seminars and cleaned up my credit,” said Gomez, who is employed atRiverview Medical Center. “I was then put in touch with the New Jersey Mortgage and FinanceCompany that helped us through the process.”

According to Porter, all municipalities need to have a plan for affordable housing. The vision foraffordable housing in Red Bank started under Red Bank’s former mayor, Edward McKenna, and

was embraced by Mayor Menna. Through a land acquisition grant of $2.3 million that the city received from former New JerseyGovernor Jon Corzine’s administration, Cedar Crossing broke ground. In order to obtain the resources to have the homes built,The Red Bank Affordable Housing Corporation partnered with the Housing, Mortgage, and Finance Agency of New Jersey, theMonmouth County CHOICE Program, and Investors Bank that provided construction loans.

It was important to Porter that Cedar Crossing not be rental space but rather homes that would be purchased. “If they were rentals,I wasn’t going to get involved,” said Porter. “There’s a renter’s mentality that doesn’t always buy into community. In order to develop a quality community to allow them (homeowners) to become vested in the community as property owners and tax payers, it [Cedar Crossing] had to be homeownership.” The homes range in price from $72,000 to $165,000, with consideration in pricing given to a homeowner’s financial eligibility.

For Rose Gomez and her family, owning a home is living a dreamthat’s now come true with hope, faith, and help from the Red BankAffordable Housing Corporation.

Fans of Jazz in the Park—the popular free summer outdoor concert series in Red Bank’sRiverside Gardens Park—might be in for disappointing Thursday nights this August. For thefirst time in almost twenty years since the popular music program came to town, sponsorshipfunding is not hitting the bank notes needed for its standard two months of programming.

Jazz in the Park has long been a collaborative effort between the Red Bank Parks and Recreation Department, Comcast, and Brookdale Community

College, with Comcast being the lead sponsor for years. Of the $25,000 needed for a full calendar of concerts to continue, Comcast is providing $5,000 for the 2012 season. Parks and Rec can fill in some of the gap to assure that the concerts go on in July, but August

is not in the budget…yet.

Cheryl Cummings, Executive Director of the Brookdale Network, has been a member of the steering committee for music programming in the park sinceits inception. “Jazz in the Park is well attended and very much appreciated,“she explains. “It’s a great sponsorship opportunity for any company that wantscommunity presence.”

The lion’s share of the budget goes for staging, sound and lighting—non-negotiable costs. Red Bank Parks and Recreation Director Memone Crystian is

working out logistics, dates and details with headliners for the July concerts. “The musicians have been terrific,” she says. “They’re working with the situation and I’m really thankful.”

On Friday nights, Songwriters in the Park is on schedule for the summer. The sidewalks of Red Bank will be alivewith music and entertainment on Saturday nights in June, July and August when Red Bank RiverCenter presentsStreetLife, now in its 12th year. The Red Bank Public Library is planning a series of big band concerts in the parkto celebrate its 75th anniversary. But in Count Basie’s hometown, funding for Jazz in the Park needs to pick up thetempo. Sponsors are needed. All contributions help.

Walk to the town dock at the end of Fair Haven Road, and with a little imagination youcan see the steamship Albertina leaving nearby Chandler’s Dock (built in the late1840s) with a load of Navesink River oysters bound for New York City. Come back,say, in the years before the turn of the 20th century, and watch the vaudevilliansdebark and head for the Atlantic Hotel (today the Nauvoo Grill Club) up on FairHaven Road. Mix up your time travel, and you might run into Vince Lombardi, wholived here while coaching with the New York Giants in the mid-1950s.

With a history as rich as that of Fair Haven, there’s much to celebrate, and that’s just what Fair Haven is doing. Theborough, whose first permanent dwelling dates to 1816, was incorporated in 1912 (the Albertina was depicted onthe town’s official seal in 1962), is throwing a year-long Centennial bash with scheduled monthly events that, so far,have included a January kick-off reorganization meeting at Bicentennial Hall, a school assembly writing contest andphoto contest in February, the Centennial Gala in March, and publication of a Taste of Fair Haven Cookbook in April.May features a Concert of the Century on the19th at the Fair Haven Dock, with three local bands offering a widerange of music, followed by a grand Centennial Celebration June 16 complete with a parade, picnic, games, musicand more—all free. There’s a July Regatta, a Centennial Night at the Fireman’s Fair in August, a garden party, golftournament, lecture series…the celebrating continues into December culminating with a holiday open house.

The idea for a big Centennial celebration belongs, primarily, to Michael Halfacre, former Mayor and formerPresident of the Foundation, according to present Fair Haven Mayor Benjamin Lucarelli. “A 100th anniversary is a100th anniversary, and it’s an excellent opportunity to celebrate the town and all the wonderful things we enjoyhere,” says the Mayor, pointing out that the Centennial, as with most endeavors in the borough, is driven entirely byvolunteers—“the backbone of our municipality”—and thus it is a good time to honor them as well.

Michael was also the driving force behind forming the Foundation of Fair Haven, which is a volunteer group and isresponsible for raising funds for the Centennial efforts (its first major project). The Foundation officially was formedin 2009, and will continue on well after the Centennial celebrations are over, according to Borough CouncilwomanSusan Sorensen, who serves as the Foundation’s President. It is hoped that the Foundation will back other eventsunique to Fair Haven, helping offset costs that otherwise might be borne by the borough, she notes. Scholarships areunder consideration as well. “We’ve had a lot of help from the Fair Haven Business Association whose members havebeen instrumental in working with us,” says Susan.

The Centennial Celebration, as it unfolds, has generated much enthusiasm. More than 300 attended the March Gala alone, which featured visiting dignitaries including state Senator Joe Kyrillos and Grace Hanlon, New Jersey’sdirector for tourism.

“Our aim is to develop outstanding events that leave the participants with a strong sense of pride towardthe Borough and a lasting memory of this historic occasion,” notes Fair Haven’s web site. For the complete Centennial Celebration schedule, updates, and related information, go to FairHavenNJ.org.

How can a gal who grew up in the wide-open spaces of a cattle ranch in northern

California find happiness inside the(almost) windowless world of a busycleaners in Fair Haven, New Jersey?For Vicky Heard, the answer comes aseasily as her ever-ready smile: bringyour own sunshine with you whereveryou go. For Vicky, that has meant making a big place for herfamily, friends, pets and community—in other words,all her loved ones—at FlairCleaners, the business she has owned at 761 River Roadsince 1967.

May 1 marks the anniversaryof the day she and her firsthusband, Kenneth Brett, amaster tailor, opened their business in Fair Haven. Together they ran it andraised their two daughters, Liz andCorrie, until his passing in 1990. “Iremember I worked to within hours ofElizabeth’s delivery, “says Vicky, “andthen I kept a crib at the cleaners. It’s always been our home base.”

Forty-five years of continuousservice to the dry cleaningneeds of her neighbors pleas-antly blur the line betweenbusiness and pleasure. “SarahDevlin used to get off bus andplay here,” Vicky recalls. “Thekids would hide in the boxeswhen customers came in. The

day Sarah was getting married, she got abig lipstick stain on the front of her wedding dress. She stopped here on the

way to the church, in one of those antique cars thatwent five miles and hour. I ran out to the car, took thespot out, and she went on her way.”

For all the touches of home at Flair—like Vicky’sblooming sidewalk garden out front, the steadystream of rescued animals (including, recently, 57 kittens adopted out of the shop and Claudette, thewhite bull dog who took up permanent residence),and a bulletin board loaded with photos of localfriends and families—this is a hard-working environment with a staff of eight that delivers dry-cleaning and laundry services to thousands ofcustomers who depend on them.

With the exception of laundered shirts, all work isdone on premises. Dry cleaning, spot cleaning,pressing, laundry services…every garment is hand-finished and touched-up with a hand iron. Vicky doesfree home delivery herself to regular house accounts

in the local area. After decades of encounters, there isn’t astain she hasn’t met, and, if at all possible, conquered.“Fabrics play an important part in what they’ll release in the way of stains,“ she explains. “And red wine is a killer.”

By Vicky’s account, hundreds of thousands of soiled shirtshave entered her doorway over the years, only to leavecleaned and ready for action. It continues to be her pleasure to make it happy for them—and countless otheritems—to be taken to the cleaners.

by CORT SMITH

O n March 18, a woman from Tinton Falls walked into the Little Silver Family Pharmacy, out with her prescription—and what she later learned was the winning ticket in a Powerball lottery drawing. WhenMatt Parisi, manager of the family-owned pharmacy,

heard the news the next morning, “I was just screaming. I couldn’tbelieve it!,” he recalls. Neither could Celeste Tamburello, having justwon $70 million.

“You can’t ask for better advertising than that,” Matt adds, of all themedia attention, or a better customer, for that matter: Celeste hadbeen making the trip to the Little Silver Family Pharmacy for years.This is not unusual, someone eschewing closer-to-home pharmacies

in favor of this one. As Matt explains, customers come from Lincroft,Oceanport, Red Bank, Eatontown, Middletown. One regular, a womanwho had moved from the area and whose husband recently was diagnosed with Parkinson’s, now drives a good 40 minutes to get here.

Why? “She had tried everything around her and wasn’t getting the service that she used to get here,” Matt says simply. “She trusts us,

counts on us, and feelscomfortable with us.”

Being privately owned, likeLittle Silver Family Pharmacy,has its advantages: alldecisions can be made in-house, quickly, and withoutjumping through hoops forcorporate okays, whether itis the cost of non-insurance-paid pharmaceuticals, theselection of shelf stock, or involvement in the community. “As a family-run business we have the

kind of stake in the community that chains don’t,” he says. “We’re here to stay.”

Matt, his sister, brother-in-law, father, and a few other non-family partners, together or in part, own three pharmacies (one in Lyndhurst,and two in Newark), along with the Little Silver location. Matt’s father,Matthew Parisi—a respected long-time pharmacist in Newark—bought the enterprise in June of 1999. “He loved the town, loved thecommunity,” Matt said of his father. Initially, the new owners filled 40 to60 prescriptions a day but that soon changed. Five or six years later, inone year alone, business increased ten-fold. “Right now we are at agreat growth pace, each year expanding steadily,” says Matt, who tookover operations full time in about 2004. Today, the store is stocked witheverything from toys, gifts, and cards to medical supplies, products forexpectant mothers—and full prescription drug services.

“We want our customers leaving with a smile on their face; I mean that literally, and we see that happening,” says Matt with pride. “It’s very gratifying.”

A BIG STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION

THE NEW

ZEBUby CJ ANSORGE


41

In downtown Red Bank, businessesopen and close, expand and contract,but moving a full-blown food serviceoperation a few hundred feet downBroad Street almost never happens.

The recent move of ZEBU Forno from20 to 12 Broad Street is one of thoseexceptions and owner Andrew Gennusaconsiders it one of the luckiest moves ofhis entrepreneurial life. “My expectationhere,“ he says, enthusiastically, abouthis new space, “is to double the business.”If the bustling lunch crowd around himis any indication, he’s on his way.

THE ORIGINALThe new location opened March 1,2012, almost eleven years, to the day, that ZEBU Forno first opened itsoven doors (forno means oven inItalian) to serve up piping hot pizza ina self-service, congenial, art-filled environment. The board of fare featuredbreakfast and lunch sandwiches, salads,pastries and sundries, along with softdrinks and all the coffee you could drink.

Always intended to be a communitygathering place, ZEBU became a net-working Mecca as well. “There werehigh-level headhunters who did everysingle interview in ZEBU for years,“ hereports. “It was a suit-and-laptop officefor a lot of people, in all kinds of companies...publishing, real estate...some of them seven days a week.”Business professionals and downtownshoppers, moms with baby strollersand kids after school, young couplesand retirees, breakfast clubbers andfamilies out together—people came tomeet and eat and ZEBU expanded tomake room for them.

“From 2001, when we opened,” explainsAndrew,“ through 2008, everything wasterrific. Then the economy went south.People stopped patronizing the townand business changed.” Althoughsome businesses chose the exit route,Andrew stayed the course through2011 when, for the first time in years,he saw store vacancies being filledwithout others leaving, a steady pick upin shopper traffic, and an opportunityfor a rebirth of his own business—starting with an attractive real estatepackage for a new Broad Street location where he could put into prac-tice important lessons he had learned.As one of the original founders ofManhattan Bagel, Andrew’s experiencehad taught him that businesses

evolve—take the best and move it forward, as you revise a better andbetter concept.

THE REBIRTH“I know that I love making peoplehappy,” he says, “and I love makingthem happy in Red Bank. Staying intown was important. We could havetaken ZEBU anywhere, but we havesuch a connection to this town. Peoplewanted us here and we wanted to behere.” 3,000 square feet of primeBroad Street space sealed the deal.

The “we” at ZEBU now includesAndrew’s wife of twenty-one years,Carole, who often can be seen in frontof the counter orchestrating a positivecustomer experience. “I’m not a wifehere,” she explains, “but a very important customer.” With years indirect sales, her focus is to make surethat positive is the only experience acustomer ever has.

Making ZEBU more of a full-serviceenvironment was part of that order. Inthe new ZEBU, customers place anorder at the counter, find a seat, andthen enjoy the experience of a full-service restaurant. There is still a self-service coffee counter and take-out orders, but table service is now

the order of the day and night; ZEBU is open for breakfast, lunch anddinner (BYOB).

Cooking is still done on premises in afull-view kitchen that includes the fornofrom the original ZEBU. “Everything ishighest quality and done ‘old school,’”says Andrew. “Our mozzarella ismade from our own hand-blendedcurd. We are constantly regeneratingthe masa madre (the yeast based starterdough) used in our artisan breads.“

Along with popular ZEBU pizzas andpaninis, the expanded menu nowincludes new taste-tested lunch itemsand dinner entrées. “We listen to ourcustomers,” say Carole, “and put newitems on our menu that they asked forlike the Eggplant Delight sandwich andour killer White Baked Mac & Cheeseentrée made with white cheddar, whiteAmerican, and parmesan cheese.” Thesingle most popular pizza is still theclassic Napoletano—a hand tossedthin crust pie topped with SanMarzano tomato sauce and whole milkshredded mozzarella. Carole’s favoriteis the White Pizza topped with freshmozzarella, provolone, and parmesan.According to Andrew the ZEBUCarbonara—chicken, bacon, onion,whole tomatoes, roasted red peppers,and garlic in cream sauce—is numberone in the pasta department.

When you walk into ZEBU Forno thesedays, there’s a familiar sense of place,thanks, in part, to the colorful, wittyGregg Hinlicky murals on the walls thatstill characterize the space, but a newlift and lightness are unmistakable. The buzz is back—the happy sound ofpeople gathering—better than ever,and the Gennusas love the sound.

In astrology’s medieval times, the planetJupiter was called the Greater Benefic,the universal source of good fortune,benevolence, and optimism. Centuries

later, the nickname still holds up. The fifth planet from the Sun and thelargest planet in our solar system (twice as massive as all the planetscombined), extroverted, expansive Jupiter takes twelve years to spinmerrily around the zodiac. The planet in charge of making sure weinclude pleasure and play on our “TO DO” list, it invites each of us tojoin in at the party of life. Also the philosopher of the zodiac, Jupiterurges us to have new adventures that expand our horizons beyondwhat we already know, to have faith in the goodness of life now, andin how it can be in the future.

The characteristics of Gemini—the third of the twelve signs of the astrological zodiac—are associated with the planet Mercury, named for the messenger of the gods. Mercury’s job was to move between the depths of Hadesand the heights of Olympus, the mountain home of the gods, with many stops on the earthly plane. Travelling atlightning speed, he gathered information from one realm and distributed it to another, linking the human and thedivine. Any planet in the sign of Gemini will be expressed in mercurial fashion, and when the planet in question isexpansive Jupiter, you can simply take those qualities to the “nth” degree.

So after June 11, expect words, words, words, all the time, everywhere: e-mailing and texting (and you can counton more and more of the dreaded FWD: subject lines showing up in those e-mails.); phone calls and meetings; chitting and chatting. With the “dot connecting” philosopher planet in the sign of the curious, “dot collecting” communicator, there will be lots of new ideas to explore, leading to more and more information coming in so quickly that, unless we’re very careful, it will be misinterpreted or lost altogether. Let’s hope Google is expanding

its capability to handle all the increased traffic!

Our collective urge for pleasure and living life to the fullest expands as well.We’re all going to be more on the move and more sociable, for sure, but

we’ll also want to be travelling. Jupiter loves travelling far and wide(like to Paris or Tibet), and Gemini travels as well, just preferring

to venture closer to home (like maybe a couple of states away.)

But even the Greater Benefic can have a dark side, and,for Jupiter in Gemini, the coin of that realm is excess: love of life and pleasure morphing into extravagance,irresponsibility, and waste; information overload leadingto intellectual and psychological meltdown; communicationthat becomes a meaningless Tower of Babel; an activitypace that accelerates to debilitating exhaustion. However,

if we pay attention and put on the brakes before lifebecomes the energetic equivalent of a bad day at NASCAR,

Jupiter in Gemini can bestow gifts of a deeper understandingof life and your place in it; of insight and information just how and

when you need it; of everyone in, and not out, of each communicationloop they belong in, and of experiencing a sheer, clear feeling of being just so happy to be alive.

Have a great Jupiter-in-Gemini year!

JUMPIN’JUPITER!

Astro IntroIf you could observe the motion of theSun against the stars for an entireyear, it would appear to trace out alarge circle in the sky that is calledthe ecliptic. The zodiac is a thin band of the sky on either side of the eclipticthat encompasses theapparent paths of all theplanets. (The word zodiacmeans "circle of life.") Forastrological purposes, the zodiac is divided into 12constellations or signs: Aries,Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo,Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius,Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces.Astrology interprets and explains theinfluence of the planets on humanaffairs and terrestrial events by examining the positions and anglesthey form with each other in the skyas seen from Earth.

On June 11, expect the pace

of life and communication to

accelerate big-time when Jupiter

enters the communicative,

sociable, curious, on-the-move

sign of Gemini…and stays

there until June 25, 2013.
