Postmaster warns against missing package scam Submitted by Trisha Oppold Forreston Postmaster Are you receiving emails from the Postal Service about missing a package delivery? Does the email, which claims to be from the USPS, include a label with fraudulent information about an attempted or intercepted package delivery? If so, don’t open the email, because it may contain a link
or attachment that, when opened, installs a malicious virus that can steal personal information from your computer. The emails claim to be from the U.S. Postal Service and contain fraudulent information about an attempted or intercepted package delivery. The emails instruct customers to click on a link to find out when they can expect delivery.
Forreston Postmaster Trisha Oppold is asking customers not to do it. “We want to keep our customers safe,� she said. “Lately, we’ve been receiving complaints from customers about receiving emails about missing delivery.� Like most viruses sent by e-mail, clicking on the link or opening the attachment will activate a virus that can steal information such
as a customer’s user name, password, and financial account information. What to do? Simply delete the message without taking any further action. The U.S. Postal Inspection Service is working hard to resolve the issue and shut down the malicious program. “If you’re not sure about the email you received, you can delete the message
or contact the U.S. Postal Inspection Service,� adds Oppold. Postmaster Warner also offers these tips on spotting scam emails: The text contains poor grammar or spelling errors. The text states immediate action must be taken or customer could face dire consequences. The email requests
personal information under the guise of re-confirming information. The text from an “automated message system� states “Click on this link for details.� Customers who have questions or wish to report a scam email should call 1-800-275-8777 or email spam@uspis.gov.

Polo woman hired as health dept. administrator By Chris Johnson Reporter For the past 16 years the Ogle County Health Department has been under the direction of one woman. At the end of this month, a new woman will step in to run the department. Health Department Administrator Doreen O’Brien, Oregon, is retiring from the post after 16 years. “I originally thought I would only be here 10 years,” she said. “I am a massage therapist so I will pursue that and grow a business.” In her final month on the job O’Brien is helping Lucinda “Cindy” Bauling, Polo, with the transition. Bauling will become the administrator on June 30. “I have huge shoes to fill,” said Bauling. O’Brien laughed and said Bauling is qualified for the position. “We come from the same background,” said O’Brien. Both woman were nurses before joining the health department. “I was with OSF Healthcare and was a vice president of home health,” said Bauling. “I was in charge of six agencies.
I am local to Polo and this is a terrific opportunity.” Her previous job required extensive travel which kept Bauling away from her family. Bauling would like to continue building on the hard work O’Brien has put into the department. “To Doreen’s credit she has established a good department,” said Bauling. “We will have a smooth transition.” O’Brien has enjoyed the public support her department has received in her tenure in the department. “I think when I started the reputation of the department was not as high as it currently is,” said O’Brien. “I think this is because the public has an understanding about the services we provide and recognizes us.” One aspect the department oversees are well and septic systems in the county and O’Brien and her staff have worked hard to ensure safe drinking water throughout the county. “The community of Kings is getting well and septic upgrades,” said O’Brien. Unincorporated Kings is located east of Oregon on Ill. 64.
She said the upgrades will make sure the water quality continues to be safe for future generations. Other improvements under O’Brien’s tenure include making a computer database of all the well and septic systems in the county. “In my interview for the administrator’s position I gave a speech on sealed wells,” said Bauling. “Now I think about that when driving around the county.” Before, files were not organized which made finding documentation about permitted wells and septics difficult. “This is one example of raising the professionalism of this department,” said O’Brien. When Bauling takes over, she has a simple goal for the department. “I would like to continue improving the health of our citizens and the environment,” she said. “The challenge will be the budget.” The department continues to serve the community while having more healthcare issues to address. Over the past year the department has been working with the Affordable Care Act (ACA) “Obamacare.”
“Prevention is part of this law,” said O’Brien. “That is important to everyone. The prevention of diseases is valuable.” She said the value of this law may not be known, but it allows public healthcare agencies to continue their mission to keep everyone healthy. In Ogle County, the majority of people who signed up for the ACA were in transition years. “We enrolled many 55 to 65 year olds that were not part of Medicare,” said O’Brien. The health department is able to assist anyone who would like more information about the ACA, O’Brien said. Food safety is another major duty of the heath department. “When you don’t know about us we are doing a good job,” said O’Brien. “You have safe food to eat. That is a basic heath issue. We go out and inspect restaurants and schools.” If anyone in the pubic has complaints about food safety they can anonymously leave a complaint with the health department and it will be investigated. “Word of mouth is a powerful tool,” said O’Brien.

“The public gives us a lot of valuable information.” The health department is also the local source of information about diseases. “Illinois is prepared for diseases,” O’Brien said. “We have an electronic system that records all of our diseases and we get regular emails from the Center for Disease Control (CDC).” These reports allow the department to alert medical
clinics, nursing homes, and schools, about potential widespread infections before they hit. “Knowing what to look for is key,” she said. “Common sense will also help keep you healthy.” She said the basics include washing your hands, covering your mouth when coughing, getting immunizations, and staying home when you are sick.
Owner of dogs won’t be charged in attack Sauk Valley Media The owner of three dogs that attacked and seriously injured 63-year-old Aneda Ebert, rural Ashton, will not face criminal charges, Ogle County State’s Attorney Mike Rock said in a news release. “After reviewing the Ogle County Sheriff’s Department investigative reports and potential criminal statutes, it has been determined that prosecution is not viable,” Rock said in the release, sent May 30. Ebert was attacked April 21 while jogging near her rural Ashton home. Her husband, Larry, was riding his bike and happened upon the scene. He drove off the dogs, which had dragged Aneda into a ditch, and called 911, likely saving his wife’s life. She had severe injuries to her neck, shoulder, arms
and leg, spent four days in the hospital and underwent surgery twice to repair her wounds. The dogs, two pit bulls and a smaller brown dog, were impounded by Ogle County Animal Control officers shortly after the attack and later euthanized with the consent of the owner, who has not been publicly identified. At the time, Tom Champley, Ogle County Animal Control Administrator, said the county can cite an owner of dogs running loose dogs, but “there’s not a fine if a dog bites.” Vanessa Scott, Whiteside County Animal Control Warden, said authorities can charge owners of attacking dogs when there is evidence the owners knew their dogs had the potential to do harm without provocation. Previous incidents, she said, can serve
as proof. Champley agreed. “Legally, there has to be a prior report on these dogs” before animal control can pursue charges, he said. The Eberts were familiar with the dogs and said they never had been a problem before, and they didn’t know what prompted the attack. “They’ve been in our yard when our grandchildren have been here,” Aneda said at the time. Almost every day, weather permitting, Larry and Aneda bike and run past the house where the dogs were kept. Aneda, a retired physical education teacher, teaches one day a week at Tilton Elementary School in Rochelle. Aneda has started to do some walking, but says it will be a while before she can get back on a bike.
“I’m still in a lot of pain,” she said Sunday. “The outside wounds are healing well, but the doctor says it could be 5 to 6 months for the internal stuff.” Aneda said the muscle is torn from the bone and skin is torn from the muscle. While it’s nice to start walking again, she said, it’s frustrating how painful any movement can be. “I just don’t have that spring in my step,” Aneda said. “It still hurts too much to run, and I haven’t even tried the bike yet. I’m trying my best to carry on, but it’s painful.” While the decision not to prosecute didn’t come as a surprise, it was still disappointing, Aneda said. “I wasn’t surprised, because of the Illinois statutes, but with the severity of the attack, it just seems that something should have happened,” Aneda said.

Attorney general issues scam alert Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan is alerting Illinois residents about an email scam that uses her office’s name and falsely threatens prosecution to collect on supposed debts. Madigan’s office is investigating the scam after Illinois residents reported receiving emails from accounts that fraudulently appear to be sent by a representative of the Attorney General’s office. The emails include an attached “final warning� letter stamped with an official-looking seal that alleges the recipient owes money on an outstanding loan and must pay off the balance or face prosecution by the office. “This email is an outright scam,� Madigan said in a
June 3 press release. “Do not respond to anyone claiming to represent my office with demands for money or threatening prosecution. Instead, call our Consumer Fraud Bureau immediately at 1-800-243-0618.� Madigan’s office said people who have applied for loans online may be at particular risk for the scam because they have provided their personal and financial information to companies that in turn sell the information to either lenders or, in some cases, illegal fraudsters seeking to use the personal information for profit. Illinois residents should contact Madigan’s Consumer Fraud Bureau at 1-800-2430618. Out-of-state residents should contact her office at 312 814-3000.
Hoopin’ It Up at Field Day
Program on identity theft offered June 6 Presentation to be in Rochelle
State Representative Tom Demmer (R-Dixon) will host an Identity Fraud Prevention presentation Friday, June 6 at the Hub City Senior Center, 401 Cherry Ave., Rochelle, from 10 to 11 a.m. Free refreshments and coffee will be served. An identity theft prevention expert from the Illinois Attorney General’s office will speak on how to prevent fraud and what to do if you’re a victim. Also, Detective Terry Inman with the Rochelle Police Department will speak on local scams and how to file a police report if you have had your identity stolen. “Nearly 10 million people have their identity stolen every year in the U.S.,� said Rep. Demmer. “Sadly, most of those victims are senior citizens. Seniors are targeted

by crooks not because of their age, but because of their liquid assets. That is why it is important for us to educate senior citizens on how to identify a scam and what do about it.� Just prior to the seminar, interested citizens may participate in a donation brunch at 9 a.m., at the senior center. The Hub City Senior Center identity theft presentation is free and open to the public.
Village of Progress seeking day camp donations Since the Village of Progress began services to Ogle County adults with developmental disabilities some form of summer camp experience has been offered to the men and women enrolled in its programs. VOP allows an average cost for consumer participation of $65 per day camper and is requesting community support
to help with the funding of this long running recreational experience. In the 1970s staff and consumers shared a week long residential camp event at Stronghold, featuring a number of side trips during the days. In the 1980s the residential camp shifted to the Lutheran Outdoor Ministry Center, and
was shortened to four and then three days and nights. In the mid 1990s the change was made from a residential camp to a day camp format offering activities throughout the summer to consumer groups of varied sizes and interests. The 2014 Day Camp Program will allow Village of Progress consumers to
participate in outings which may include activities such as fishing, boat rides, field trips of area interests, and cookouts. For more than 40 years the summer camp offerings have provided our consumers a social, recreational and learning opportunity not otherwise available to most of the individuals who participate.
For many of the consumers, the VOP day camps are the only “vacation� they will know. Anyone wishing to make a contribution is asked to mail his or her gift to Village of Progress, Box 418, Oregon, 61061. Any contribution to the day camp program, regardless of the amount, will be appreciated.

Guest Column Board member questions why vote was taken By Lee Meyers District 6 Ogle County Board The following is a statement read into the record at the May 20 Ogle County Board meeting by me. My concerns were regarding a request by neighboring property owner, Beth Henderson and Oregon City Council Member Ken Williams for a 30-day delay in construction of a Sheriff’s Office and Coroner’s Morgue in Oregon’s planned future riverfront tourism area to allow a no cost-to-the-county economic impact study by Western Illinois University. Here is my statement: “Since our last board meeting I have been approached by several different citizen concerning the actions of the county board. “Last month we had two reputable Oregon citizens request that we postpone a vote on the new sheriff’s building for 30 days, giving them time to research the riverfront property.
“These were not radical people but upstanding citizens interested in the growth of the community. We also did not have anyone stand up and request that we ram the project through. And, according to Mr. [county board member Don ] Griffin, it would have cost the county nothing to postpone the vote one month. So, what did we do? The majority of the board chose to disregard the wishes of concerned citizens and proceed with the vote for the building. “And to make matters worse the architect chose to pass out hats on the south side of the room in front of the gallery. What was that all about? “My question to you is who are we representing, the members of the county board or the citizens who elected us. “In my opinion last month was a travesty of authority. It was just wrong. “Maybe the next time a citizen approaches us with a concern, the majority of the board will chose to do the will of the people, which is why we were elected in the first place. “The citizens in this county are watching and they are not happy.”

Strange day for Polo track team at state meet Lightning delay and missed start time for jumper By Andy Colbert Reporter It was a strange day in Charleston at the IHSA 1A state track and field preliminaries for the boys team from Polo-Forreston on May 29. The 1,600-meter relay team didn’t run until four and a half hours later than it was scheduled and Brian Cavanaugh didn’t get to compete at all in the triple jump. The only normalcy perhaps was in the 800 relay. It was an experience that first-year coach Ryan Deets will probably not forget for awhile. The delay in the 1,600 relay was due to lighting and thunderstorm concerns. The miscue in the triple jump was an entirely different matter. The staff and athletes from P-F were under the impression that the triple jump would not begin until 1:10 p.m.* Since the 800 relay wasn’t until 12:50 p.m., normal protocol says not to arrive too early, otherwise athletes are in the sun and heat too long. By the time the team arrived to O’Brien Stadium around 11:20 a.m., they were surprised to see the triple jump already in progress. “Right away, I got a bad feeling in my gut,” Deets said. “They were on the second attempts already and that was an hour and threefourths before we thought it was to begin.” “We got here and watched a couples races and then noticed the triple jump was on,” Cavanaugh said. “I ran down and they (event officials) told me to stretch out and be ready.” Before the P-F team arrived at the stadium, a call for Cavanaugh to report to the triple jump had gone out over the PA system. Since he did not report and the event had started, the games committee ruled him out. “They went to the higherups and came back and told me I couldn’t compete,” Cavanaugh said. “It’s upsetting, but it is water under the bridge,” Deets said. “It didn’t crush Brian’s spirit in the 800 relay. We had a PR.” Cavanaugh, Max Barkalow, Brian Cavanaugh and Nathan Stukenberg ran 1:32.91 to place fourth in its heat and 19th overall among 30 teams. “We ran our best time, but not our best race,” Barkalow said. “We had great legs, but sloppy handoffs. That shouldn’t be happening. We need to focus on improving that. Otherwise I’m happy
with it.” “We possibly could have shaved more time off with better handoffs,” Brad Cavanaugh said. Sterling Newman won the heat with a time of 1:30.92. In the finals, Eureka with standout sprinter Brett Charlton, took first with a 1:29.56 clocking. Newman was sixth. “Our 4 x 200 ran a great race,” Deets said. “We were leading after the second exchange and had 22-second splits. That’s all you can ask for when you’re down here.” The 1,600 relay of Kevin Cheeseman, Barkalow and the Cavanaughs finally took to the track at 7 p.m. and the result was fifth place finish in its heat. Their time of 3:31.80 was 18th overall and two second slower than what was needed to advance. Still, it was a personal best by a second and half and a small measure of satisfaction was gained after beating sectional champ Oregon. The Hawks were in the same heat and took seventh at 3:33.93. “It was a great first season,” Deets said. “The kids were fun to work with and it seemed like everyone had a good time.” Deets is also excited about the future of track and field at Polo and Forreston. Both the fresh-soph and varsity were conferencee champs for the first time in history. “The 400 and 1,600 relays from Forreston were state champs at the middle school meet,” Deets said. “The Polo eighth and seventh graders also had an excellent showing. This year’s been awesome for us and the future is even brighter.” Oregon did advance one competitor into the finals. Troy Pudlas took eighth in the discus with a throw of 156-7. The biggest disappointment for Oregon was No. 3 pole vault seed, Ashton Rutherford, failing to make the finals. Aurora Christian won the 1A meet with 46.5 points, followed by Eureka with 42, Tuscola 37 and Newman with 30. The girls from Aurora also were state champs in 1A track. *Every IHSA running and field event has a specific start time, except for the triple jump. In the official published schedule of Thursday’s field events preliminaries, the triple jump is listed after the discus and the discus start time is 1:10. The fine print, though, does indicate that the triple jump was to start 15 minutes after conclusion of the long jump, which started at 10 a.m. Meet officials were informed of the confusing nature of the triple jump schedule by Deets and indicated they would look into changing how the schedule in read for next year.

Sports Column Pleasure to cover PoloForreston sports By Andy Colbert Reporter Before I get started today, a quick apology to readers from the Polo and Forreston newspapers. In writing this column and other sports, my primary reference point is in Oregon. That’s where I live and that’s where I signed on to cover high school sports on a part-time basis. Thus, I don’t

have the same insight into sports in your two schools as I do in Oregon/Mt. Morris. Unfortunately, it’s rare that I am able to cover either a Polo or Forreston sports events. It’s a shame because I love the enthusiasm both towns have for high school athletics. And, I made a lot of good friends over the years in both places and it is such a pleasure to be a small part of the community life. As the sports season comes to a close, I was able to cover the final softball game against Stillman Valley, the NUIC track meet, both the boys and girls sectional track meets and the boys track meet downstate. A few thoughts from my limited perspective as an outsider looking in: The softball program is in extremely capable hands with Terry Pierce as a coach. I’ve gotten to know Terry the last year or so and find him to be tremendous asset for Forreston. As a reporter, it is refreshing to hear a guy tell it like it is, instead of trying to look good or cover up concerns his program has. Terry will be upfront and honest and I bet he’s the same way with his players. On top of it, the man knows the sport. I look for continued success for the softball program.
Another first year coach was Ryan Deets, who had what he called “big shoes” to fill in replacing the much loved Tom Welty as track coach. Welty made track fun and it was evidenced by the large turnout of athletes at Polo. From what I could tell, Deets is following in Welty’s footsteps by building on the “fun” aspect. As I observe various teams at meets, it is readily apparent the gang from Polo/Forreston genuinely is enjoying themselves. Finding a quality track coach nowadays is much more difficult in years past. There are not as many “track and field” people around. Sad to say, but the sport has lost some of it relevance it used to have back decades ago. I’ve noticed a lot of small schools lacking in coaching expertise. Not so with Deets and the crew at Polo. He’s a track guy and will continue to bring expertise and enthusiasm into the sport. Another plus is that both Forreston and Polo have some young kids coming up through the ranks that could put the program among the elite 1A teams in northern Illinois. While at the NUIC meet, it came as a big surprise to learn from Terry Jenkins that he will not be returning as a coach or athletic director.
Andy Colbert
The Jenkins (Terry and his dad Bill) have been an institution as Polo for as long as I can remember. This subject is probably a topic in itself for another time, that is, if anyone is willing to discuss it. Again, that’s one drawback to not being in the heart of a particular sports beat. Though I’ve known Terry for quite some time and consider him a good friend, I really don’t know the full story on why he is retiring. Finally, I did not make it to a baseball game this year. As we discuss the various spring sport coaches, I’ve known Kyle Zick since covering him as 3-year varsity football player at Rochelle. If he approaches being a baseball coach with the same intensity he played football, I think you guys will be okay.

Girls softball season begins in Polo with two games By Larry Loomis The 2014 season of Polo Girls’ Softball began here May 19 with a pair of games. In game one, the teams were both from Polo as Polo One coached by Kevin Allen and Shelly Boelens hosted Polo Two coached by Lisa Cassens and Brendon Velez.
Both teams are part of the Litlle Miss Division of the Carroll County League which features teams with players that were in third and fourth grade this school year. This game was a clash that girls from both teams were eagerly awaiting and by evening’s end Polo One would eke out a narrow 3-2
victory. Polo One scored in the bottom of the first after holding Polo Two scoreless in the top of the inning despite the fact that Polo Two had loaded the bases but could not score. Polo One’s run came as Madissen Allen reached on a single with two away and
then came in to score on three consecutive base on balls. The score would remain 1-0 until the bottom of the fifth when Ashia Maginnis led off the inning with a walk. A walk to Elleanna Wells would push Maginnis to second. She would later score on infield outs by Jasimine Badon and Madissen Allen
to give Polo One a 2-0 lead going into the final inning of regulation. Polo Two, which loaded the bases in the second and fifth innings was yet to be heard from. Not giving up, Polo Two managed to tie the game in the top of the sixth. Natalie McDuffy drew a leadoff walk. Elleanna
Williams also walked to put two runners on with no outs. Following a strikeout, Maddy Jones walked to fill the bases with just one down. Courtney Bushman and Kadence Sheaffer drew walks to force in two runs to tie the game. Nicole Boelens, the starting pitcher for Polo One then settled down to strike out the side to preserve the tie sending the game into bottom of the sixth with Polo One needing a run to tie to take home the win. With one down in the bottom of the inning, Bri Cisketti drew a walk. Natalie Nelson, Polo Two’s starting pitcher, then lost her control after a stellar performance for much of the game. She walked the next three batters to force in Cisketti with the winning run to give Polo One their debut win of the campaign by a margin of 3-2. Nicole Boelens picked up the win throwing a no-hitter, while Nelson took the loss. For the night, Polo One had just one hit but collected fourteen base on balls. Polo Two had no hits but had a dozen walks. In game two, Bob Wagner’s and Tricia Patterson’s Polo Two squad hosted a team of fifth and sixth graders from AFC in opening round action of the Northern Illinois Girls’ Soft ball League’s Junior Division for girls who have been in Fifth and Sixth grade this year. The evening would prove to be a long one as both teams’ pitchers struggled to find the plate as each team collected a host of base on balls. AFC scored three runs in their first time at bat due to six walks. Polo came right back with six runs of their own in the bottom of the inning. Alex Dusing doubled to open the game for Polo. Following a strikeout, Amber Henson drew a walk to put runners on first and second with just one away. Becca Wagner singled up the middle to score Dusing. Sierra Wolfley walked. Kaylee Lowry was hit by a pitch to fill the bases. Desiree Badon singled to score three runs by the time the AFC got control of the ball. An infield out by Kayla Blum led to two more runs and after one inning, Polo led 6-3. Alex Dusing, Polo’s starting pitcher, struggled all night with control and AFC was able to take advantage of the walks by scoring three more runs in the top of the second to tie the game. The tie did not last long as Polo came right back with six more runs in the bottom of the inning. Kaitlyn Marschang was hit by a pitch to open the second. Abby Gorzny and Autumn Gilbert drew walks to fill the bases. Another walk to Adisyn Grobe forced in a run. Another walk, an error on a ball hit by Mallory Patterson and a long double by Becca Wagner led to six runs coming home as Polo took a 12-3 lead after two complete. AFC would get two runs back in the top of the fourth but that was to be there last scoring while Polo went on to score six runs over the final two innings to take an 18-8 victory. Polo had a total of seven hits with Becca Wagner having a great night with a single, a double and a homerun. Kaitlyn Marschang had a long triple to right. AFC had one hit but did collect seventeen walks as Polo’s Alex Dusing and Becca Wagner experienced opening night jitters in finding the plate. Tuesday night’s action was rained out in Little Miss Carroll County League play. Polo One was to host Lanark but heavy rains washed out the game which was rescheduled for Tuesday, July 8.

IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF THE 15TH JUDICIAL CIRCUIT OGLE COUNTY - OREGON, ILLINOIS
IN THE CIRCUIT COURT FOR THE 15TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT OGLE COUNTY - OREGON, ILLINOIS
You are in a good position this year, but you could spoil your chances of success with negativity and anxiety. You have the knowledge and determination to achieve, but insecurities will weigh you down and hold you back. Strive to increase your selfconfidence, and you will go far. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -This is not the time to be pushy. Compromise is required. Where there’s a will, there’s a way. Be sensitive, and let others have their say. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -Get in touch with someone from your past. It’s time to revive an old friendship or flame. Make the first move, and see if a response is elicited. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- If you have been neglectful in any way, it’s time to make amends. Life is too short to waste your time arguing. Compromise is a good place to begin when dealing with an important relationship.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- A delightful surprise will brighten your day. Love and romance are highlighted, so
spend some extra-special time with the people you love the most. Actions speak louder than words. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- You will get caught up in a dispute. Before you make any suggestions, get the facts. Keeping the peace will be more difficult than anticipated. Be prepared to back away if necessary. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- You will be unsure of how to deal with an important decision. Go back to the people you have trusted in the past. Their input will help you to make the right choices. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Collaborative ventures should be avoided today. Do your homework. You can make a small investment pay off, but it must be on your terms. Work alone. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- It’s time to tackle home beautification and domestic chores. Yardwork, redecoration and reorganization are good ways to spruce up your surroundings and burn a few calories.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Imagination is only part of the equation for a successful effort. Changes need to be made, and now is the time to make things happen. You have waited long enough to reach your goals. Forge ahead. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Someone is trying to deceive you. Don’t believe what you are told. You will have to get the information firsthand if you want to discover the truth. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Don’t be afraid to say no. It’s good to offer help, but before you do, take care of your responsibilities. You don’t have to be superhuman. Take a break. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Do whatever it takes to enjoy life today. Your health will suffer if you’re constantly worrying. Go out and do something with the people who make you happy.
