The I Commonwealth Townhomes have been designed with a touch of yesteryear, only better. With exteriors reminiscent of English tudor cottages you are lifted into a time gone by. The entire community is nestled within an enclosed brick wall, your fortress against the world when it's time to retreat from the battles of the day. Homes feature 2-3 bedrooms, 2 1/2 baths with plenty of space for your active style. Conveniently located 2 miles from uptown Charlotte in Historic Midwood, you'll be home before the gas fumes even start to hit the pavement. If you ever wished you could have a little piece of history but don't have the energy or time for repairs, updates and renovations, you must not miss this limited opportunity.

The event will focus on wellness, celebration, nurturing and commu nity-building of gay men living in the south eastern United States. Scheduled for August 23 - 26, the summit will take place on Jekyll Is land, Georgia. Participants will represent urban, suburban and rural communities from throughout the Southeast — North and South Carolina, Ala bama, Florida, Georgia, and Tennessee — in cluding men of color and gay youth. The sum mit is especially reaching out to those who have never participated in formal health promotion efforts. Set in a retreat-like atmosphere on the in viting beaches of Jekyll Island, the four-day summit will invite frank and creative dialogue between gay men working iii health promotion/ out in the stars April 28 - May 11 by Charlene Lichtenstein Special to Q-Notes Grab the maypole and welcome May this week; the sultry summer is not far off. This May delivers unusual surprises as a result of our ac tions, thanks to renegade Mars, Pluto, Neptune and Uranus. These old sods make mincemeat out of our best-laid plans. The chickens come home to roost: How do you like your eggs, buddy — scrambled or just hatched? ARIES (March 21 - April 20) If you are planning that great escape this May, be sure to check your reservations and itin erary at least twice. Plans have a way of getting sidetracked and what you thought you’d get at the end of the rainbow is not what the travel agent promised. Pack your optimism and ex pect some grand and surprising elements that will certainly make your life more... ahem... interesting. TAURUS (April 21 - May 21) Be careful of what you wish in a lover, gay Bull. Sex will have a way of getting out of con trol this May when energetic Mars runs amok with Pluto, Uranus and Neptune. Stow the whips and chains and be a bit discerning. How would you like that wet dream to show up at your office the next day dressed only In a g- string and a prayer? Hmmm — May I? GEMINI (May 22 - June 21) If your witty repartee with partnets is a little “strained,” chalk it up to the retrograde gang. These Wilde orbs cast a fog between the two of you. If you’re searching for a special some one, check out the merchandise carefully be fore you buy. All May you will have no idea of what size you need and what style looks best. How tight and garish do you want it, hot pink Twin?? CANCER (June 22 - July 23) Proud Crabs feel like rats on a treadmill this month, as work responsibilities become almost overwhelming. To make matters even worse, you won’t accomplish as much as you would like or as much as you would expect considering the effort. Maybe it’s time to break Out and take a well-deserved vacation. Enjoy the vistas and don’t leave a forwarding phone number. LEO (July 24 - Aug.23) Fun was never so much trouble. The retro planets have a way of ruining the best of par ties with misdeeds and miscommunications. Queer Lions can better enjoy a day at work or a stint at the gym where at least you feel appre ciated and at ease. It’s better than spending too much money and effort on questionable pas times that, for now, tip you into the abyss. VIRGO (Aug. 24 - Sept. 23) If you thought about escaping to your safe cocoon at home, think again, gay Virgin. Retro Mars stirs up a hornet’s nest in any home-re lated issues. If you are thinking of taking down disease prevention and men who have a per- spnal interest in advancing the health of their community. The summit will include plenary sessions, workshops and social activities designed to in crease health awareness and a greater sense of community. A wide range of health issues im pacting gay and bisexual men will be addressed, including HIV/AIDS, sexually transmitted dis eases, nutrition, spirituality, homophobia, sub stance use, mental health, political activism and physical fitness. Participants will learn about the health challenges facing gay men in the new millennium; they will create collaborations, es tablish new partnerships and form friendships. The registration fee includes access to all sessions, a reception on Thursday evening and Saturday evening banquet. A limited number of scholarships are available.

T walls, stop and talk to a contractor. If you are angling for new groundbreaking discussions with family, prepare for WWIII. Well, some times you have to detonate a few bombs to get noticed. ... LIBRA (Sept. 24 - Oct. 23) Pink Libras will more than likely let the pro verbial cat out of the bag when planets turn the screws on communications. Mars practi cally broadcasts your darkest secrets and you’ll be doing double duty to fix what these maurading orbs have scratched. On the bright side, certain secrets hold you back from true happiness. Cats and people are often happiest out of the bag (or the closet). SCORPIO (Oct. 24 - Nov. 22) Queer Scorps are shaked, rattled and rolled financially when a gang of retrograde planets picks your pockets. Avoid any undue risks, es pecially when it comes to investing. It would be a shame to blow your wad on a fog, a dream and a prayer, although it will be very tempting. Save your pennies and spend to the hilt in Pride Month. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 - Dec. 22) Don’t be surprised if the planets serve you a hot steaming portion of gay Archer au jus. Mars is stirring up your public persona and the folks that you meet and greet could be very good (or very bad) for you. Choose your mentors wisely, my friend, think before you act and communi cate very carefully and diplomatically this May. Oy! Look who I’m talking to! CAPRICORN (Dec. 23 ' Jan. 20) Proud Caps are fairly tight-lipped but May brings a veritable planetary liberation with you as Che Guevera. There is an especially power ful force working behind the scenes that could transform and overturn all that you hide and avoid in life. I recommend a good cleaning of the pipes where secrets and closets are con cerned. Don’t let it shake your self-confidence, cousin. AQUARIUS Qan. 21 - Feb. 19) Aqueerians are out and about in far reach ing, global ways. If you believe that your career is stalled because of recent problems, at least the retro gang of planets dispels you of such silly notions. These are opportunities, pal. The main thing is not to listen to the advice of friends. What is right for others may not be right for you. Go with your inner voice and grab the gold. PISCES (Feb. 20 - March 20) If Guppies are keen to climb that corporate ladder, it is best not to take any drastic risks this month. The gang of retrograde planets will have a way of screwing up your best-laid pro fessional plans by detonating a neutron bomb where a Molotov cocktail (as in a drink!) may suffice. Whine to yourself in the quiet of your room if you must, but don’t let the sharks smell your panic. T [For entertainment purposes only.
