| Getting psychic
Right in the heart of the Mission, near ATA and across from Herbivore, a sign that says Psychic Horizons stands over a doorway. You might not even notice it or you might just ignore it like you do the evangelical church down the street. But if you're curious, every Tuesday night at 7:30, Psychic Horizons is open for a free introduction. I went last Tuesday to check it out (Full disclosure: I've been dragged by various friends to see psychics and invariably I'll be told something intriguing or ominous about my future and I'll start obsessing about it just a little, even when it seems ludicrous. My friends are generally amused by this.) Anyway, I guess I was still curious enough to take a closer look. On some level, maybe I was thinking they'd teach us how to access our own psychic powers so we could read people's minds.
Psychics: Panda May be Pregnant
That, at least, is the consensus of two psychics, enlisted Friday by Zoo Atlanta to predict the 8-year-old female panda's pediatric prospects. It was all done "in the spirit of good fun," according to a news release from Zoo officials. Atlanta-born psychic Helene Frisch reported she telepathically connected with Lun Lun using "tone vibration," the release said. Frisch said she discerned that not only is Lun Lun pregnant, but she will likely bear a male cub by Sept. 4. Another psychic -- Andy Liu, a native of China -- used the ancient I Ching to calculate a 65 percent chance that Lun Lun is pregnant. Zoo spokeswoman Jennifer Waller said officials have another reason to suspect that Lun Lun is expecting: The panda was artificially inseminated last March.
