Gaming issues for problem gamblers

101 seniors graduate from OHS Ebens, valedictorian, Reckamp, salutatorian

Editor’s note: This is part 3 of a 4-part series on the impact of local video gaming terminals.

By Andy Colbert acolbert@oglecountynews.com At 2:50 p.m. on Sunday, Oregon High School Principal Andrew Nelson instructed 101 graduating seniors to move their tassels from the left to the right, and then turn around and face the 1,500 people in attendance at the Blackhawk Center.

With that, Nelson proudly said to the well wishers, “I present the class of 2016.”

Much the same way an incoming freshman is told time will seemingly go faster for the next four years than they’ve experienced, the Oregon High School commencement was over.

Earlier in the ceremony, Nelson acknowledged 33 seniors who graduated with honors, including cum laudes, National Honor Society, community service and Premier Scholars.

Three grads were also mentioned for entering the Armed Services. Close to half the class had a GPA over 3.0.

“We gave out over $350,000 in scholarships and have 11 seniors with a grade point average of 4.0 or higher,” Nelson said.

The class valedictorian was Jacob Ebens, who led all classmates with 689 hours of public service, besides being a Premier Scholar, member of the National Honor Society and a summa cum laude.

“We entered kindergarten with one step,” said Ebens in his senior reflection.

“One step – that’s all. One step leads to all others.

“Looking back on our past four years, our steps were heavy with burden or carefree and light. There are many more step to come and that will lead us on the greatest journey of our life,” he said.

Paul Reckamp, National Society Member, Premier Scholar and summa cum laude gave the salutatorian address.

He likened the time at OHS to a movie.

“The credits at Oregon High School are Turn to A2

The sole purpose of a slot machine is to redistribute wealth from the poor and stupid to the rich. At least that’s the definition from the Urban Dictionary.

Not all people that play slots are poor and stupid. Many are highly educated and have plenty of disposable income. But, a percentage of those will continue to play slots despite harmful and negative consequences.

“As far as I’m concerned, the only places that should have gambling are Las Vegas, Reno and Atlantic City,” said a husband of a problem gambler.

His wife also realizes she has a gambling addiction and has gone as far as having herself banned from casinos in Illinois and the surrounding states. That does not prevent her from entering any of the 40-plus establishments in Ogle County that offer video gaming terminals.

She tried them and lost hundreds of dollars.

“I hope these places go out of business,” her husband said ruefully. “There are six of them within four blocks of where we live. They don’t belong here.”

Though video gaming is a temptation for problem gamblers, they are probably here to stay.

But, is there is anything that can be done to include video gaming establishments on the self-exclusion list that the Illinois Gaming Board offers for casinos?

“It’s something we are working on,” said Gene O’Shea, Director of the Statewide Voluntary Self-Exclusion Program for Problem Gamblers. “Our chairman and board are very interested in it.”

The Gaming Board began its first selfexclusion program in 2002; about 10 years after casinos were licensed in Illinois. Currently, there are 11,958 people who have voluntarily signed up.

Several opponents of the proposed Great Lakes Basin Railroad again urged the Ogle County Board last week to pass a resolution against the $8 million project.

“We’ve got to nip this in the bud,” said Cindy Brown, Lindenwood, who also spoke at the April 19 meeting along with several others.

Teresa Petry, Rochelle, asked the board to officially oppose the plan.

“The railroad will change Ogle County in many ways,” she said.

Marriage Licenses, A4 Oregon library, A6 Public Voice, A8 Property Transfers, B7

Although the plans now call for the railroad to go through the east side of the county, Petry said that could change as much as 30 miles in either direction.

“It could run through your backyard,” she said.

Robert Walsh, Lindenwood, echoed her concerns.

“Please protect our farmland and our way of life,” he said.

Opponents have cited potential danger to the watershed, farmland, the environment, and wildlife.

The rail system would be entirely funded by private investors led by Frank Patton, Crete, a former software developer.

public meetings last month, including one in Rochelle, to gather input on a proposed 278-mile rail line project that would extend from southern Wisconsin to northern Indiana.

The system would extend from Milton, Wisconsin, to La Porte, Indiana, requiring overpasses for several interstates and four rivers, including the Rock River in Ogle County.

The route would run through sparsely populated areas, bypassing the congested Chicago rail system. The new rail lines would connect with existing Class I railroads.

Plans call for one of the branches to connect with Rochelle’s rail system on the city’s southeast side before continuing to an Interstate 39 overpass.

OHS Class of 2016 graduated May 22 From A1 about to roll, but the film is not over yet,” said Reckamp, with his family proudly beaming from the front row of seats. “Think big and be willing to work for your dreams.”

His final message to fellow grads was to “bask in this moment”.

The commencement address was by Don Griffin, a 1970 OHS graduate. His words were of encouragement.

17-year-old charged with robbing station A 17-year-old Mt. Morris girl was charged last week in connection with an early morning robbery at the Oregon Shell gas station.

The girl has been charged with robbery.

According to a press release from Oregon Police Chief Darin DeHaan, officers responded to a robbery at the Shell station, 201 S. Fourth St., on May 20 at 1:32 a.m.

The offender entered Shell and demanded money and cigarettes, the press release

“I encourage everyone of you to be engaged (in life),” Griffin said. “I would encourage you to take the time to thank your mentors and friends.”

Griffin wrapped up his talk, quoting Winston Churchill and actually impersonating his voice.

“Never, never, never, never give up,” he said.

In addition to the 101 graduates, honorary diplomas were presented to nine foreign exchange students.

said.

The offender implied she had a weapon and then fled from the scene.

The girl was taken into custody at 2:45 a.m. at 601 S. Sixth St., and transported to Oregon Police Department.

After reviewing the incident with the Ogle County Probation Department, the juvenile was transferred to Kane County Juvenile Detention Center, pending a court appearance for the charge of robbery.

Memorial Day service is slated for May 30 The Oregon VFW, in cooperation with the Mess Hall and the Oregon American Legion, will hold a Memorial Day parade and service on Monday, May 30.

Wreaths will be placed at the military monuments at the Ogle County Courthouse at 9:30 a.m., and from there the parade will march at

approximately 10 a.m. to Riverside Cemetery for the service.

A potluck will follow the service at the VFW, 1310 W. Washington St. The public is invited to bring a dish to pass and visit with family and friends.

In case of rain, the service will be held at the VFW.

On-street parking is restricted to shoppers through the use of limited time parking.

Williams said signs will be provided to direct shoppers to off-street parking in the South Third Street lot, the two South Third Street lots on either side of the city hall, and the South Fifth Street lot.

Business owners,

employees, and downtown apartment dwellers should park where no time limits exist.

These rules have been in effect for several years.

Two changes that went into effect May 19 are listed below: • two-hour parking will be in effect for only one row in the South Third Street lot, • the posted two-hour parking on the north side of the Coliseum will now be a four-hour limit to accommodate those attending event in the building.

When a neighbor’s compost pile caught on fire early this month, two Oregon residents took quick action and saved a nearby garage.

Oregon Fire Chief Al Greene said Lisa Schultz saw the fire near the garage of her neighbors Tim and Mary Jorgenson, 610 S. Fourth St., on May 9 and immediately called 911.

Schultz knew the Jorgensons were away from home.

Donald Goly who was riding his bike in the neighborhood, grabbed a garden hose to spray water on the fire, keeping it from spreading to the garage until the fire department arrived.

“These good neighbors call to action kept their neighbors’ garage from catching fire until the Oregon Fire Protection District could fully extinguish the fire,” Greene

said.

He said the small compost pile near the garage spontaneously combusted due to the heat built up inside it.

Greene cautioned residents about where compost piles and fires are located.

“Residents should be reminded when having compost piles that they should be kept away from

combustible materials [such as buildings].

The natural process of decomposition of natural material without proper ventilation and maintenance can spontaneously combust causing fire,” he said. “With spring cleanup we should also take caution and refer to local codes for recreational fires and yard waste burn off.”

The Oregon Republican Reporter was founded in 1851 as the Ogle County Reporter. In 1889, the Ogle County Republican, a competing newspaper, was started. In 1890, the Republican was sold to Ziba Landers. Upon his death in 1939, the newspaper was assumed by his son, Ernest D. In March 1951, Paul F. Behan, owner of the Reporter, and E.D. Landers and his son E.G. (Tim) Landers united the newspapers into the Republican Reporter.

Ernest D. Landers died in 1966, and E.G. and Behan became partners. Eventually, E.G. Landers assumed sole ownership, and in 1985 he sold the newspaper to B.F. Shaw Printing, Dixon.

Riverview Cemetery is filled with Oregon history Donations being sought to repair cemetery’s roads Editor’s note: Otto Dick, Oregon, has researched the people, places, and events important in Oregon’s history for the Ogle County Historical Society. The following is one of a series of the articles he has written.

By Otto Dick “Riverview Cemetery is one of the most beautifully located cemeteries in Ogle County. It is one-fourth mile north of Oregon off Rt. 2 on the west side of the road. It was established in the 1830s.

This is a large cemetery, terraced on and around a wooded hilltop overlooking Rock River with a view of the statue of Chief Blackhawk, located on the opposite bank of the river in Lowden State Park.”

The above description is from the Riverview website Originally Riverview Cemetery was named the Upper Cemetery to distinguish it from the Lower Cemetery in Oregon.

An impressive marker at the center of the hilltop marks the gravesite of Oregon’s founder John Phelps.

These tombstones reveal the names of our ancestors who lived and worked giving us what Oregon is today.

Each family buried here played a part in our history.

The Sheets Memorial Stone is just one example of these people that contributed to our history in a very positive manner.

Thomas Fisher added the following on Find a Grave Memorial concerning Benjamin Franklin Sheets buried at Riverview.

“Civil War Union Brevet Brigadier General.

“A graduate of the Rock River Seminary in 1855 he became a dry goods merchant in Mt. Morris, Illinois.

“In January of 1861, he moved to Oregon, Illinois and became deputy circuit clerk

Benjamin F. Sheets

for Ogle County.

“In May of 1862, he was elected sheriff of Ogle County but served only a few months.

“During the summer of 1862, in response to President Lincoln’s call for volunteers to fight against secession, he joined the 92nd Illinois as a lieutenant colonel.

“The 92nd Illinois was organized in northwestern Illinois in August and September of 1862.

“It became known as the ‘Abolitionist Regiment’ because of its concern for the welfare of African-Americans in Kentucky where they first encountered slaves and slave owners.

“The 92nd participated as part of Wilder’s Lighting Brigade in the Tullahoma campaign, the Battle of Chickamauga, and the beginning of General Sherman’s March to the Sea. “On March 13, 1865 he was brevetted brigadier general ‘for faithful and meritorious services.’

“After the war he resumed his occupation as a dry goods merchant and miller.

“In 1886 he was elected to the state senate for one four year term.

“While serving in that body, he introduced legislation to establish the Illinois State Reformatory located in Pontiac, Illinois.

“Governor Fifer appointed him the first superintendent of that institution and he served in that capacity from 1891 until 1893.”

My personal comment is that we owe it to every person buried at Riverview to properly maintain this cemetery.

Any donation starting at $50 will help rebuild the cemetery roadways which are in terrible condition.​

Many local community members participated in Project LEAD’s effort to promote healthy decision making during prom season.

Project LEAD (Leaders Encouraging Abstinence from Drugs) is a communitybased coalition that aims to promote youth abstinence from mind altering, addictive substances.

As part of their vision,

Youth LEADers designed t-shirts that could be worn by community members during their school’s prom weekend.

The message read “P.R.O.M. Please Return On Monday” and encouraged students to think about their decisions and make healthy choices that would guarantee their return to school the Monday following prom.

Ogle County schools and businesses that participated include Stillman Valley HS, Byron HS, Oregon HS, United Church of Byron, Oregon United Methodist Church, and Woodforest National Bank.

Medics embedded with Ogle County ERT team

By Chris Johnson cxjohnson@oglecounty news.com Medics will now join the Ogle County Emergency Response Team (ERT) to ensure the quickest response to medical issues that may occur during police procedures.

Ogle County Sheriff ’s Brian VanVickle was joined by officials from Swedish American Hospital May 17 during the official announcement for the implementation of medics (TEMS) imbedded with the Ogle County Emergency Response Team.

“During the past twenty months we have worked very hard to implement this new resource,” VanVickle said in a press release. “The process involved many hours of training for the paramedics in SWAT tactics, but is also required cooperation from the doctors at Swedish American Hospital to authorize treatment protocols. We understand the challenges we, in law enforcement, face and have been committed to changing the way we do business, making sure our officers and deputies are treated in a timely manner.”

The TEMS team is the first established in northern Illinois.

It also allows medical responders to go into areas that were not normally accessible until a scene was completely secured.

“I would like to thank Byron Fire Chief Galen Bennett and Rochelle Fire Chief Dave Sawsville for allowing members of their department to join the team,” VanVickle said. “I

The members of the Ogle County Emergency Response Team gather with officials that worked to get medics embedded with the SWAT team.

The six officials in the middle of the back row are Tom Pratt, Swedish American Hospital EMS, Jon Strotkamp,Swedish American Hospital EMS Director, Jon Underwood, DO FACEP Swedish American emergency physician, Ogle County Sheriff Brian VanVickle, and Rochelle Fire Chief Dave Sawsville.

would also like to thank Dr. John underwood and Swedish American Hospital for seeing the need.”

The SWAT Medic team includes Emergency Medicine Physicians Dr. Jon Strotkamp and Dr. John Underwood along with a others from Swedish American’s EMS team.

Katryna Kirby, Swedish American Hospital, issued a press release about the partnership.

“Having a SWAT Medic Team aligned with a resource hospital is unique,” Kirby said in the release. “The SWAT Medic team is comprised of a few physicians and all paramedics, but they also are trained to respond to situations that are handled by the police.”

For example, the team responded with the police to a stand-off situation last

month in Leaf River.

Strotkamp and Underwood participated in a drill May 17 with the ERT. Although it isn’t likely that they would ever respond to a situation, as they would need extensive training on firearms in order to do that, Underwood is the medical

director and all protocols they operate under in the field are approved by him,” Kirby said. “This training drill is an opportunity for Underwood to see the type of training the SWAT Medic Team goes through as it isn’t a typical EMS service but still an important one.”

The ERT team has access to a BAE Caiman 6x6 MRAP (Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected) vehicle that VanVickle received for the U.S. Department of Defense and Homeland Security for no cost last year.

The vehicle can carry numerous passengers in the

rear of the truck and will be used to safely transport the ERT team and the medics during emergency situations.

The Ogle County Sheriff ’s Department also has a Humvee that can be used when the ERT team is needed.

Mott is master gardener intern Melody Mott is serving as an intern with the Ogle County Master Gardener program.

On May 4, a total of 22 area volunteers graduated from the University of Illinois Extension Master Gardener training program held in DeKalb County.

University of Illinois Extension’s Master Gardener program is an educational volunteer training program.

Volunteers take classes that

provide information on horticulture topics including vegetables, tree and small fruits, insect and disease management, turfgrass management, annuals, perennials, soils, botany, and plant pathology.

Once they’ve completed their training, they volunteer 60 hours over a two-year time period for their local county Extension program.

They may answer client questions at the Horticulture

Hotline, assist with plant clinics, speak to various groups, conduct workshops, work with community and school gardens, and more.

Master Gardener volunteers enable University of Illinois Extension to expand its potential to reach more people with horticulture information to improve their gardens and communities. Master Gardeners share a love of gardening and the desire to

share their knowledge with others.

For more information about the Master Gardener program, please feel free to contact, Extension Program Coordinator, Sarah Rowland at sarowlan@illinois.edu or by phone 815-732-2191.

The next Master Gardener training will be held in Boone county. More information is on the website at web. extension.illinois.edu/bdo.

Lower slot limits make it hard to exclude gamblers From A1 Putting a program into play for places that only offer video gaming terminals has been much more difficult.

“The environment of a casino and corner bar are different,” O’Shea said.

“There are so many technical issues. We want to do something, but aren’t sure yet how to do it.”

For example, if someone wins a pot of more than $1,200 on a casino slot machine, paperwork must be filled out for tax purposes.

If you had already placed yourself on the self-exclusion list, your winnings are given away to charity.

Those caught gambling have forfeited 1.7 million dollars, including one person at $40,000 alone.

However, local video gaming has a limit of $500 jackpots, thus excluding any paperwork that would track someone from the list.

Thus, problem gamblers can play local slot machines without the risk of losing

their winnings.

“There is also the whole issue of privacy,” O’Shea said. “The information (Social Security number, drivers license, age, address, photo) given to us is considered very confidential, but must be shared with the casinos.”

Starting a self-exclusion list for the neighborhood bar that offer slot machines is in the preliminary stages and is hampered by the fact that there are more than 5,000 of these type of establishments in Illinois, compared to only 10 casinos.

One idea that has been considered is requiring a driver’s license or players card be inserted in a slot machine before playing.

If someone on the selfexcluded list tried to play, the card would be red-flagged, automatically shutting the machine down.

“Some of the general public (non problem gamblers) wouldn’t be comfortable being forced to use their personal

information,” O’Shea said.

“And, having a machine shut down creates problems for the operator.”

Another idea proposed is educating the business owners on problem gambling and asking them to monitor their clientele.

However, personal judgment is an imperfect science and a business also risks alienating its costumer base by doing so.

For O’Shea, it is a headscratching dilemma and one that there is not yet a clearcut answer.

The Gaming Board is looking at all aspects of this, even researching what is done in other countries.

They are also seeking input from the casino industry on how to facilitate it. It took a year and half to put the selfexclusion program in action for casinos.

“We need to do something,” O’Shea said. “I think there is a ticking time bomb with problem gamblers playing slot machines. It’s a form of adult entertainment that lots

of people can have fun with, but not all of them. People have committed suicide over this.”

Stories abound about respected community members (not the poor and stupid) who have been arrested for criminal offenses to pay off gambling debts.

“We’re seeing a lot more women, highly-educated women who are risking careers,” said Cheryl Hollembeak, a substance abuse and gambling counselor at Remedies in Rockford, one of the agencies listed on the Illinois Gaming Board website where problem gamblers can go for help.

Hollembeak feels that “problem gambling” is actually a misnomer.

“Actually, it is their solution,” she said of those with a gambling addiction, the same way alcoholics and drugs addicts use those substances as a solution.

In reality, that solution never works and the gamblers finds themselves

mired deeper in a hole unless a way out is found.

A year and a half ago, Hollembeak started a gambling anonymous meeting in Cherry Valley, as a source for those wanting help.

“We’re barely scratching the surface on what can be done,” Hollembeak said. “Since slot machines were established, we have definitely seen an increase in problem gambling.”

W

e thank the brave men and women of our Armed Forces for their dedication and sacrifice.

As we mark Memorial Day, we also honor and remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice in defense of our nation.

God Bless America.

He sponsored Calvin Peete and Mick Soli on the Professional Golf Association Tour.

Lowell’s true passion and love was for his family and

friends.

Peoria man sentenced for 2015 high speed chase

By Angel Sierra Sauk Valley Media asierra@saukvalley.com A Peoria man was sentenced to a combination of probation, court supervision and community service after pleading guilty to some of the charges stemming from a May 6, 2015, high-speed chase that started at Castle Rock State Park.

Daniel H. Swisher, 41, pleaded guilty May 16 to one count of criminal damage to government-supported property and one count of fleeing to elude.

He will serve two, 2-year sentences concurrently: probation for using his 2015 Porsche to hit a marked squad car, and court supervision for the misdemeanor fleeing.

“The sentence was crafted to address the mental health

issues which were brought up in open court ... last year, and [to] also protect public safety,” Ogle County State’s Attorney Eric Morrow said in an email. “The defendant had very little previous criminal history and was compliant with all pretrial requirements, including mental health treatment.”

Total fines and court costs were $4,863, all of which have already been paid, Morrow said Monday.

Restitution was paid by Swisher’s vehicle insurance.

He also must serve 30 hours of community service, adhere to treatment recommendations, take prescribed medication, and maintain employment, in addition to the regular set of release conditions. He received credit for jail time served.

Six felonies and a

misdemeanor were dropped in exchange for the guilty plea.

Swisher, who had been undergoing treatment for bipolar disorder for several years, originally pleaded not guilty to multiple counts of

a welfare check at the overlook at Castle Rock State Park found Swisher in a parked car around 2:10 p.m.

When they tried to approach him, he fled north on Ill. 2 toward Oregon, went east on Ill. 64 and made it to

aggravated fleeing to elude and two counts of resisting a peace officer, all felonies; and misdemeanor possession of marijuana.

According to the Ogle County Sheriff ’s Department, the chase ensued after deputies doing

Kings, then turned around and returned to Oregon, where he eventually was stopped by police on the bridge over the Rock River.

At times, he reached 104 mph, and swerved toward oncoming traffic, police have said.

Breast Yard Sale raising money for cancer research

By Karen Virnoche Brown Cancer Survivor For a cancer patient and his or her family and friends, a cancer diagnosis is the beginning of a long journey.

As a cancer patient – From the moment a person hears the life-changing words, “You have cancer,” that person is faced with learning about the disease,

understanding treatments, making vital decisions along with experiencing potential pain and emotional stress.

As a caregiver – A caregiver is a person whose life has been touched by a cancer diagnosis of someone they know.

Simply put, a caregiver is someone who has cared for someone with cancer.

If you have done anything to provide support, given

your time, or simply been a shoulder to lean on, you are and always will be a caregiver.

As they face their challenges, your support will help those fighting to win.

Come and shop at the Breast Yard Sale in Town at Maple Hill Farm, 1194 Mud Creek Rd., Oregon.

The sale opens May 28 from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. and

runs daily, rain or shine, for three weeks, through June 19.

For information, call Karen 815-973-2050.

Ogle County Relay for Life is June 3 at the Byron High School track. The event starts with Survivor Dinner at 4:30 p.m.

The opening ceremony is at 6 p.m. Luminaria will be out at dusk.

Help fix the veteran’s headstones

The White Oak Cemetery Improvement Committee, Forreston, is asking the public, and especially veterans, to help with the repair work on veteran’s headstones.

“White Oak has about 130 veterans interred there, and most of the old headstones have either fallen over or are in very bad shape,” said

committee member Russ Ruter.

The flag markers, which designate the headstones as belonging to veterans, are also bent, he said.

“We need more honor for these veterans than a half fallen-over headstone and a bent flag marker,” Ruter said.

The committee is asking for help setting the stones

in place on concrete bases that will also hold the flag markers. The repairs will also make mowing around the stones more convenient.

Funds are also needed for these and other repairs at the cemetery.

Donations can be mailed to Forreston State Bank at PO Box 278, Forreston IL 61030.

Contributions can also be given to Sue Engelkens at the bank.

When making a donation by check, write “improvement” on the memo line.

Besides Ruter, members of the White Oak Cemetery Improvement Committee are Rick Stukenberg and Lloyd Wubbena.

Morris, Byron and the Ogle County Sheriff’s Department will be running through downtown Oregon around 10:30 a.m. on Wednesday June 8 with the Flame of Hope to raise awareness for Special Olympics. Dan Daub, court security for the Ogle County Sheriff’s Department, is organizing the run for the second year. “Our team name is ‘Ogle

County Law Enforcement.

The team has representatives from the area municipalities and the sheriff department,�

Daub said. “Everybody will carry the torch during the run and each participating officer is raising $100.�

Earlier this month, 16 athletes from the Village of Progress (VOP) competed in 27 events. Five athletes from the VOP won gold medals qualifying for the summer

games on June 10 and 11 in Bloomington. “We are hoping the public will join our folks again this year in downtown Oregon to show support for a great cause and a great group of public servants,� said Brion Brooks, VOP Executive Director.

The Flame of Hope is handed from community to community until it reaches Bloomington for the opening ceremony.

Bison trip will be held June 4

Conservancy’s Nachusa Grasslands on Saturday, June 4, starting at 9:30 a.m.

In the fall of 2014, The Nature Conservancy brought a herd of 60 wild bison from South Dakota to the Nachusa Grasslands to establish the first wild bison herd in Illinois in order to complete their prairie ecosystem. Their bison herd continues to grow with many new calves born each spring. The Byron Forest Preserve District will be taking two vans leaving from the Jarrett Prairie Center and driving to Franklin Grove. The group will then be transported via open trailers for a guided tour by The Nature Conservancy staff to see the Nachusa Grasslands bison herd before the prairie grass gets too high to see the new spring calves. Participants are invited to bring their cameras.

The cost is $5 per person. Register early as space is limited. For more information call the Byron Forest Individuals from the Village of Progress marched in the spring games at Harlem High Preserve at 815-234-8535 ext. 200.

Astrograph You have plenty of options. Put your charm to good use.

Thursday, May 26, 2016 GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Partnerships will be intense. Put your energy into passionate encounters, not into disagreements or trying to lavishly please someone who is giving you a hard time.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Jump in. Standing on the sidelines waiting to be asked to join the party is not going to help you get ahead. Stand tall and show off your unique attributes.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -Get involved in a project that will stimulate your senses. A change and a challenge will help motivate and inspire you to bring about overdue personal changes.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -Don’t underestimate a situation when dealing with partners or matters concerning your work, reputation or domestic situation. Travel, interactions with children and openness to suggestions are all favored.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -A competitive approach will show others that you aren’t a pushover. Express your will through your actions. It’s what you do that will help you gain the respect of others.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Be aware of what others are up to. Friends and relatives will meddle if you let them. Stick close to home and do your own thing. A creative project will ease your stress.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Anger is the enemy.

Put your energy into activities that encourage positive change.

Offer compassion and affection instead of criticism or neglect.

Avoid excess and questionable opinions and beliefs.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Don’t wait. If an opportunity presents itself, make your move. Contracts, settlements and anything that can put you one step above your current position should be taken advantage of.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Test your strength.

Get involved in activities that will motivate you. Make physical changes at home that will improve your living arrangements. A romantic gesture will bring good results.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Don’t share your plans.

Someone will take advantage of you or take credit for your ideas. Take your time and make sure you have left no detail unattended to.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Check out new possibilities.

If you negotiate on your own behalf, you will make financial and contractual gains. A physical change is favored.

A romantic celebration will enhance your love life.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Don’t disregard what others say or offer. Working in unison with those willing to match you every step of the way will ensure that you reach your goal. Discuss, develop and promote. ©2016 UFS
