—Photo by Jennifer Peacock Vesper, the juvenile Kemp’s Ridley turtle, was released at Point Pleasant Beach near Water Street July 30.

By Jennifer Peacock POINT PLEASANT BEACH – The crowd gathered at the ocean near Water Street drew attention from walkers on the boardwalk.

“Excuse me, miss.

W hat is happen i ng

down there?” a man, walking with his wife on t he b oa rdwa l k , stopped to ask.

“They’re releasing a rehabbed sea turtle today. You are welcome to come watch if you’d like.”

“Oh, interesting,” he said. He and his wife kept walking.

It’s a little before 7:30 a.m. July 30. At least 200 people were waiting to see Vesper, the 5-pound juvenile Kemp’s Ridley - the

Suit Filed Over Death During Police Pursuit

FOR BREAKING NEWS

With the help of a local nonprofit organization, Lucia and her family recently got the chance to take an incredible, free cruise to Bermuda back in June. This trip was the perfect way to take a break from the stress of doctor’s visits and medical bills (Vacation - See Page 5)

By Chris Lundy JACKSON – The family of a man who succumbed to injuries in a crash has filed suit against Jackson police, stating that a police officer chased a suspect, causing the death of an innocent bystander.

The incident happened on the night of July 5, 2018. According to Patrolman Cherrick Daniels’ report, he observed a motorcyclist fail to stop at a red light before turning right on South New Prospect Road. Following the motorcyclist, he “visually estimated” the driver to be going more than the 45 mph speed limit. He closed the gap between his cruiser and the motorcyclist and put on his overhead lights.

The motorcyclist, according to Daniels’ police report, saw the police car and sped up. It then collided with a car making a left from Oak Drive.

The motorcyclist, Anthony Griffin, 22, of Jackson, was declared dead at the scene.

The driver of the car, Eric Larson, 24, of Jackson was taken to Jersey Shore University Medical Center. He succumbed to his injuries on July 27, 2018.

Larson’s family is the one that is suing the department. In the lawsuit filed in Superior Court, they state that the officer created an unsafe situation in pursuing the motorcyclist at a high rate of speed in a residential neighborhood. New Jersey has a law on the books forbidding officers from chasing people who are f leeing because it endangers the lives of people on the road.

Jackson police declined to comment since it is pending litigation.

The report from the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office stated that the officer was not at fault. Viewing the camera in the police vehicle, the investigator stated that the pursuit lasted 12 seconds. The camera corroborated Officer Daniels’ report. Additionally, it noted that the crash occurred near the center of the roadway. The report stated that if the motorcyclist was traveling at the speed limit and was in his lane of travel, Larson would have seen the motorcycle and been able to avoid the crash.

she is the 41st turtle STR has released since starting 2 years ago.

“We don’t actually know if Vesper is a boy or a girl. He’s too young to tell without some extensive testing that doesn’t change how we would treat his illness, so it’s not something we would put the turtle through,” STR co-executive Bill Deerr said.

Kemp’s Ridleys nest in Texas or Mexico and migrate north in the warmer months to feed before heading south again.

Vesper was found in Cape Cod and taken to the Sea Turtle Rescue at the New England Aquarium in Boston. Often, when that hospital finds itself overcrowded, they will send turtles down to STR. Vesper was found cold-stunned, “a condition in which the sea turtle’s body systems begin to shut down if the animal failed to migrate before water temperatures became too cold. It also was diagnosed with an impaction of swallowed sand, a severe ear infection, and pneumonia, all of which are now cured,” a July 29 STR statement said.

Indeed, such turtles are released only June through September at the Jersey Shore, where ocean temperatures are safe for turtles to return to.

Vesper was carried by an STR volunteer down the beach to just before the high-tide mark, and then gently placed on the sand before it started making his way to the water. A large wave crashed in shortly after, and Vesper disappeared in the surf to an eruption of applause from onlookers.

If Vesper is male and stays healthy, “we hope to never hear from him again,” Deerr said. “You should never see a sea turtle on the beach. So, if he washes up again, that means he’s sick.”

But if Vesper is female, “then yes, we definitely want to see those tag hits come back once she’s nesting, probably in another 10 years or so.”

According to National Geographic, Kemp’s Ridley turtles have an average life span of 50

years in the wild. They’ll grow to 2 feet and 100 pounds. Females, sexually mature at around age 12, nest every 1 to 3 years.

Deerr and co-executive Brandi Biehl founded the nonprofit STR in 2014, and with the help of generous corporate donors, opened their 4,000-square-foot care facility at Essex County Turtle Back Zoo in 2016. They remain an independent nonprofit with two full-time staffers, a part-time veterinarian, and volunteers.

“All the sea turtles in the world are either threatened or endangered,” Deerr said. “The species we released today is critically endangered. There aren’t many of those left in the world today.

Deerr continued: “The vast majority of the effects that are affecting their population are human caused. You have poaching, fishing interactions, beach development, all those things come in to play in taking away their nesting habitat. Activities on the water can impact them as well. Pollution is a huge issue. I know everybody talks about it all the time, but we see turtles with plastic ingestion on a regular basis.

It’s not a rare thing.”

And, turtles get sick like everyone else. They treat turtles with respiratory infections and coldstun, the illness that brought Vesper to them, and illnesses that set in after that.

Depending on the type and severity of the problem, turtles have stayed at STR from 3 months to 15 months, though Deerr knows of cases where turtles have had to stay in other hospitals for 4 years before being released.

To continue their work, STR does depend on donations. Anyone interested in donating can visit seaturtlerecovery.org for more information.

Day to day, Deerr said people can help by putting trash where it belongs (hint: not the ocean), recycling and reducing their consumption of single-use plastics.

“It really is something simple that people can do. It’s just a matter of changing your habits, and you can make those changes in your dayto-day life and it has a huge impact on our environment, not just sea turtles.”

“It will be entirely up to each owner,” said Jordan.

Each bracelet is $10.

“I am trying to get the public into the salons to purchase bracelets so we can pay it forward!” she added.

Jordan wants to provide another family with the ability to relax in the midst of all the stress and worry that accompanies the fight against cancer. When Lucia took her family on the cruise, she had so much fun riding on bumper cars, swimming, and even rock climbing, Jordan said.

With the help of the salon owners, Jordan hopes to turn those dreams into reality.

“I have to tell you the owners of the salon are amazing…When I explained to them what my ideas they were both all in and so excited to help out!” she added.

and have a little fun.

After witnessing what a difference this trip made, Lucia’s grandmother, Ester Jordan of Tinton Falls, is working hard to ensure that two other local families will have this same opportunity.

Jordan is selling handmade bracelets at two local Ocean County salons to raise money for Kick Cancer Overboard, the nonprofit that helped Lucia’s family.

“Our mission is to give free cruises to people who have been affected by cancer.

To offer them a break for a few days, so the most important question is not how to pay for their next medical bill, but whether to play bingo, get a massage or sing karaoke,” according to KCO’s website.

Jordan has been making beaded bracelets as a hobby for some time. However, it wasn’t until recently that lightning struck: “I thought ‘What a great way to raise money for a great cause.’

I am making the bracelets by myself and 100% proceeds are going to KCO,” she told Jersey Shore Online.

Jordan has made a few hundred bracelets and partnered with Hair Hut salon in Brick and Style in Action salon in Manchester to raise money through bracelet –Photo courtesy Ester Jordan sales.

County Prepared To Service Pets with Disaster Relief

By Kimberly Bosco OCEAN COUNTY — According to the American Veterinary Medical Association, over a third of US households are also home to a furry companion. In Ocean County, many local families have dogs or cats they consider part of the family.

In an effort to service both humans and animals in the event of an emergency, Ocean County has become the newest member of the AKC Pet Disaster Relief program.

AKC Reunite is the largest non-profit pet identification and recovery service provider in the United States. Their national program, AKC Pet Disaster Relief, is dedicated to keeping pets and their owners safe in response to natural or civil disasters.

In collaboration with local American Kennel Club dog clubs and dog lovers, AKC Reunite presented an emergency trailer to the Ocean County Sheriff’s Office. The AKC Pet Disaster Relief trailer will be available to dispatch to any disaster scene that needs assistance sheltering pets.

“We are beyond grateful to AKC Reunite and the Kennel Club of Philadelphia for providing us with this life-saving tool for our community,” said Kevin Cooney of the Ocean County Sheriff’s Office. “Our department is now better equipped to help pets and pet owners in the case of a disaster.”

In the event of an emergency, the AKC Pet Disaster Relief trailers create a safe, temporary home for at least 65 pets during the first 72 hours after a disaster is declared. Inside the trailers you will find essential animal care items including crates and carriers,

AKC Reunite microchips, an AKC Reunite universal microchip scanner, bowls, collars, leashes, fans, lighting and a generator, cleaning supplies and maintenance items.

These supplies can be used as co-location shelters, where people can evacuate with their pets, as well as emergency animal shelters for displaced animals.

“This is the 76th trailer donated through the AKC Pet Disaster Relief program. The trailer will provide critical resources to help the Ocean County Sheriff’s Office quickly assist its community when responding to natural disasters,” said Tom Sharp, AKC Reunite CEO. “Safe, effective pet sheltering solutions are important following a disaster, and we are pleased that an AKC Pet Disaster Relief trailer will be available to the Ocean County Sheriff’s Office as a vital tool.”

A generous donation of $100,000, courtesy of the Kennel Club of Philadelphia, funded the purchase of the OCSD’s new trailer.

While Ocean County was the first, the donations funds will continue to provide trailers to eight other counties throughout New Jersey and Pennsylvania.

“Our association is thrilled to be able to bring such an important resource like the AKC Pet Disaster Relief Trailer to the Ocean County Sheriff’s Office,” said Wayne Ferguson, President of the Kennel Club of Philadelphia. “The trailer will help the organization assist their community in times of disaster”.

Summer Blood Drive Celebration for Life JACKSON – On Thursday, August 22, 2019, the Knights of Columbus at St Monica’s Church will host their summer Celebration for Life blood drive. The event will be hosted from 3–8 p.m. located at 679 W. Veterans Hwy in Jackson.

Every day, every 2 seconds, someone needs a blood transfusion due to illness, treat an injury or during surgery. The blood on the shelf is what supplies that need. Since there is no artificial substitute for blood, without people donating daily, we would simply run out of blood.

According to the NJ State Department of Health, while 60 percent of the people in NJ are eligible to donate, only 3.6 percent actually do. Summer is often a difficult time for blood collections due to vacations and summer activities placing the blood supply

in critical condition.

Donors are encouraged to schedule a blood donation appointment by following the link: donor.cbsblood.org/donor/schedules/ drive_schedule/50535. Walk ins are welcome to participate in this summer event and the Knight of Columbus welcome all eligible members of the community to join them on August 22.

Vitalant Blood Services is proud to be a partner in this Celebration for Life. All donors must be 17 years of age (16 year olds may donate with parental consent, forms are available at the blood drive), weigh 110 pounds and feel healthy and well the day of donation.

County To Host Master Composter Training Program This Fall

By Kimberly Bosco LAKEWOOD – A Master Composter Training Program will be held this fall, hosted by the Ocean County’s Department of Solid Waste Management and the Ocean County Board of Chosen Freeholders.

“This program provides attendees with the tools to be master composters and gives them the opportunity to teach others in their communities about the importance of composting,” said Ocean County Freeholder Gary Quinn. “We want to encourage our residents to sign up and take advantage of what this program has to offer.”

The program will take place on two consecutive Saturdays, Sept. 14 and Sept. 21 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Recycling Education Center at the Ocean County Northern Recycling Center.

The program is free to Ocean County residents and taxpayers. There is a $75 fee for non-residents.

Each applicant is encouraged to be sponsored by a group or organization as this ensures the opportunity to establish an outreach network for the program. Many types of groups can sponsor an applicant including garden clubs, municipalities, environmental commissions, recycling committees, retirement communities or service clubs.

The course is limited to 20 participants and the registration deadline is Aug. 26.

For more information and to register, contact Sandra

Family Owned & Operated

Blain-Snow, Recycling Program Aide, at 732-5065047 or by email at sblain-snow@co.ocean.nj.us.

Registration can also be completed online by filling out and submitting an application at co.ocean.nj.us/ recycle and clicking on Composting. Select Master Composter Volunteers from the drop down menu.

Once you complete the Master Composter Training Program, you can assist with the county’s efforts in providing residents with information on managing the organic waste they produce in their homes and the benefits of composting.

“Master composters have been doing a great job in volunteering their time to help other Ocean County residents who are interested in composting,” said Ocean County Freeholder Director Virginia E. Haines.

“The Master Composter Program is a great way to learn about how to manage and reuse the organic waste that is generated in our own homes.”

Trained volunteers agree to provide a total of 24 hours of outreach, education and service to promote the benefits of home composting. They are encouraged to tailor their outreach activities to their individual strengths and preferences.

“The environmental benefits of using compost are significant,” Quinn said. “It can help clean up contaminated soil, reduce runoff of toxic materials and improve your garden or lawn.”

ARounD tHe JeRsey sHoRe “Clear The Shelters”: Help Animals Find Fur-ever Homes

By Kimberly Bosco TOMS RIVER – Get matched with the perfect furry friend to add to your family at this year’s Clear the Shelters national adoption event!

On August 17, the 5th annual event will take place at the Ocean County Animal Facilities in Jackson and Manahawkin, 1-4 p.m.

“This is a fantastic event that we look forward to participating in every summer,” said Ocean County Freeholder Gerry P. Little, liaison to the Ocean County Board of Health. “The Clear the Shelter event has been a success every year and we look forward once again to finding good, loving homes for all the wonderful pets we have available for adoption at both facilities.”

Clear the Shelters is an annual event that aims to find loving fur-ever homes for as many animals as possible by matching cats, kittens, dogs and puppies with responsible, serious pet owners. In the last two years, Clear the Shelters help over 70 pets find permanent loving homes.

“It’s really special to see how the community supports this event. So many people tell us they keep this event in mind when they’ve been seriously looking to find a special pet to add to their family,” said Daniel Regenye, Ocean County Health Department (OCHD) Public

Health Coordinator. “It’s been another busy summer so there will be plenty of kittens, cats and dogs to choose from.”

Adoption fees will be half the price on all pets during the event.

Every dog and cat adopted from the Ocean County Animal Facilities receives a veterinary exam, age appropriate vaccinations, is spayed/ neutered, and microchipped. Every one that adopts a pet will also receive a free goodie bag stuffed with treats and toys.

“We have a large variety of kittens and cats that are just adorable. Our dogs come in a variety of breeds, sizes and ages,” said Brian Lippai, OCHD Public Information Officer.

“The Ocean County Health Department encourages responsible pet ownership and we like to discourage people from buying from puppy mills. There’s nothing quite like a shelter pet” The Ocean County Animal Facilities are located at 615 Freemont Street in Jackson and 360 Haywood Road in Manahawkin.

ARounD tHe JeRsey sHoRe JCP&L Tips To Beat The Summer Heat

With the summer heat upon us, JCP&L is prepared to meet the anticipated increase in customer electricity usage that comes with a heat wave. Our system is designed and maintained to operate safely and efficiently even when temperatures soar, and our crews have reviewed hot weather operational procedures to ensure any power outages are handled promptly.

JCP&L offers some common-sense hot weather tips customers can follow to stay comfortable while using electricity wisely during this period of high demand: • Set thermostats as high as comfort will allow. Every degree a customer can increase the temperature in their home will result in using about 3 percent less energy during the hottest summer days.

• During sunny weather, close drapes or blinds on windows facing the sun to prevent direct radiant heating from impacting interior temperatures.

• Use fans – moving air cools skin faster, resulting in greater comfort on hot days.

• Use a programmable thermostat to keep temperatures higher when no one is home, and to reduce the temperature before arrival back home.

• Only operate window air conditioners when someone is in the room.

• Keep refrigerators and freezers as full as possible.

Frozen or cold items in the refrigerator help keep other items cool, reducing the amount of work the refrigerator has to do to maintain a lower temperature.

• Close rooms that aren’t used regularly during the summer, and close the air conditioning vents in those rooms, as well.

• Avoid using heat-producing appliances during the hottest hours of the day. The less heat produced at home, the less work the air conditioner will do.

• Consider investing in ENERGY STAR® appliances or heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. JCP&L may offer rebates on these purchases and tax deductions may apply, as well.

• Check air conditioner and furnace fan filters.

Clogged filters waste energy and money by forcing HVAC systems to work harder than necessary.

In addition, if summer storms result in downed wires it is important to avoid the area and immediately call JCP&L. If you see a downed power line, always assume it is live and dangerous. Report downed power lines immediately by calling 1-888-LIGHTSS (888-544-4877). Extra caution should be exercised in areas where downed wires may be tangled in downed tree branches or other debris.

Inside The Law

Injured At Work?! Know Your Robert C. Shea Esq. Rights To Critical Benefits!

By: Christopher R. Shea, Esp. and Robert C. Shea, Esq. of R.C. Shea & Associates You have a right to a safe and healthful workplace. If you have suffered an injury on the job, make sure you know what kind of benefits you might receive under workers’ compensation coverage.

In some instances, an aggressive compensation carrier may deny an injured worker’s legitimate workers’ compensation claims. An insurer can claim you have not been injured, or that the injury you have suffered is not serious enough to qualify for workers’ compensation benefits. If this is the case, you may stand to lose critical benefits.

Most important among these critical benefits is the right to medical treatment.

Medical benefits are mandated by the New Jersey Worker’s Compensation Act, and require the employer to furnish the injured worker with medical, surgical, and other treatment as are necessary “to cure and relieve the worker of the effects of the injury and to restore the functions of the injured member or organ” if possible. Moreover, in those instances where the employer has refused or neglected to provide medical treatment in accordance with the provisions of the Workers’ Compensation Act, the employer will be held responsible for the cost of treatment; even if the employee receives treatment prior to the carrier’s authorization.

Further, it is important to note another critical benefit of the Workers

Compensation Act. This benefit protects Christopher R. Shea Esq. employees f rom collections law suits when the employee obtains medical treatment that has been wrongfully or negligently withheld by an employer. This benefit, was upheld by the New Jersey Appellate Court in Kinley Physical Therapy Services, Inc. v. Kramer, and unequivocally states that a medical service provider is prohibited from filing an action against the employee until a determination has been made by the Division of Workers’ Compensation. The Court reasoned that a medical provider is normally not permitted to pursue collection actions in court until it resolves all administrative remedies, thus, the employee must be shielded from all actions by the medical provider until the Court determines whether or not the employer is responsible for the cost of medical care.

If you feel your legitimate benefits have been denied and you live in the New Jersey, our workers compensation lawyers would like to talk to you to see if we can assist you with your case. Please call for a free consultation. R.C. Shea & Associates, 244 Main Street, Toms River, N.J. 732-505-1212.

Our clients’ success is our greatest reward.

Dr. Isidore Kirsh Ph.D., F.A.A.A.

Keeping You Informed: Over-the-Counter Devices

With last summer’s passage of the Over-theCounter Hearing Aid Act of 2017, you may wonder how it affects your health care. As an AudigyCertified™ practice, we consider patient education an important part of delivering excellent service, so count on us for timely news to support your hearing wellness.

What does the law do? The legislation, part of the Food and Drug Administration Reauthorization Act, will allow the retail sale of hearing aids for adults with self-perceived mild to moderate hearing loss — without the crucial involvement of an audiologist or medical doctor.

When will I see its impact? Over-the-counter (OTC) hearing technology is at most a few years from being publicly available until federal regulations for safety, labeling, and manufacturing are developed.

What are the pros of this change? The law could help expand consumer access to hearing technology, motivate even more people to seek hearing help, and inspire more technical innovations that benefit patients.

What are the cons? Access to hearing health care is vital, but the law unfortunately will enable self-treatment for a serious physical condition that trained, licensed professionals are more suited to evaluate, diagnose, and treat.

Aren’t OTC hearing devices already available? You may be thinking of personal sound amplification products (PSAPs), which are wearable electronic devices used for activities such as bird-watching or TV-viewing to make a sound louder — not to take the place of properly fit hearing aids.

What’s the difference between OTC devices and PSAPs? Currently available PSAPs are neither FDA-approved nor recommended to

treat actual hearing loss. OTC hearing technology will be FDA-regulated but won’t be available for a while.

Once available on the market, will OTCs address my hearing needs? Hearing loss is often an inner-ear problem, but sometimes it’s a different issue such as earwax buildup, a foreign object in the ear canal, or an ear infection that may cause temporary hearing difficulty.

A PSAP or OTC won’t tackle these types of underlying problems.

What else should I know about OTCs? OTCs will address only mild to moderate hearing loss, and even then, noise processing will be far less than a traditional hearing aid. They won’t always offer a successful fit and may be less specific for your situation.

What’s the benefit of choosing provider-fit hearing aids instead? Unlike OTCs and PSAPs, provider-fit hearing aids can address the full spectrum of hearing impairment from mild to profound. They’re already FDA-approved, are recommended to treat hearing loss, and can adjust to environmental variables such as background noise as well as help your brain process sound.

Self-treating hearing loss might seem convenient, but it can do more harm than good.

Professional care — including testing, programming, fitting, and follow-up — helps you get to the bottom of your hearing difficulties and secure the right solution for your communication needs.

If you have questions about OTC hearing technology, signs and symptoms of hearing loss, or the dangers of self-treating hearing problems, call us today at 732-818-3610 we’re here to help!

H eRe ’ s t o Y ouR H eAltH Dear Pharmacist Suzy Cohen, R. Ph.

Gadolinium MRI Contrast Dye Accumulates In Brain

By Suzy Cohen, R. Ph. Gadolinium is a silvery-white heavy metal that is injected into the body through a vein and it is a contrast dye.

Sometimes it is referred to as contrast media. They help the radiologist see inside you. Gadolinium is like a flashlight in your body.

MRIs that require gadolinium can be ordered for many reasons including migraines, coronary artery disease, stroke evaluation, brain tumors, infections and cysts/tumors. Thousands of shots of gadolinium dye are administered to people each day.

Side effects may or may not occur. If they do, they are generally very mild like a headache, dizziness, pain at the injection site, prickling or burning sensation on the skin and sometimes nausea. These issues settle down within 24 hours as your body eliminates the drug from your kidneys. It helps if you take an analgesic and some detoxification supplements like glutathione, catalase and R-lipoic acid.

Gadolinium is in the news because the popular dye appears to be retained in the brain, raising safety concerns, especially for people who have multiple MRIs per year. More specifically, there has been a study regarding patients who have MS (multiple sclerosis) and these patients were tracked for five years starting from their diagnosis. Over the five years, the researchers found that a by-product of gadolinium called “gadodiamide” does in fact accumulate in the brain.

About nine percent of MS patients who received 5 doses or less did have accumulation in their dentate nucleus, which

is involved in voluntary motor function and cognition. What is the clinical impact of this? No one is certain yet. The findings were published in a medical journal called Neurology, July 2019.

The study is causing controversy MS community for good reason. The MRIs are needed and useful, but the contrast dye might be harmful if used over and over. Should they get MRIs and if so, is there another contrast dye to use? Is the dye necessary at all? Are all the MRIs necessary? Is the disease progression causing the brain to hold more, or is it ‘sticking’ to everyone’s brain that gets injected with it? No one knows these answers. There are more questions than answers as of this writing. The study did not find any clear correlation between deposition of the dye in the brain and disability.

Radiologists nationwide must be beside themselves because again, the dye allows them to provide more accurate results for you. If, for example, the doctor needs to locate an aneurysm, do you really reject to the contrast dye?

Since the relationship of gadolinium with disease severity remains unclear, talk to your doctor about whether or not the radiologist needs the contrast dye. Sometimes they can see certain areas without it. If you have a history of kidney compromise, let them know at the imaging center. Every now and then, there’s an extremely dangerous kidney complication, or life-threatening allergic reaction but predicting who has a high risk for these problems is almost impossible.

GoFundMe Aims To Replace $18K Stolen From Veteran

By Kimberly Bosco TOMS RIVER – After a local veteran was scammed out of his life savings, his son started up a fundraising website to help regain what was lost.

The GoFundMe page, “Senior with Stage 4 Cancer Scammed out of Savings,” was created by John James on July 30 in order to help his father recoup $18,000 that was taken from him through an ongoing telephone scam.

While the name of the victim has not been released, we know he is a 77-year old military veteran in Ocean County who suffers from stage 4 cancer. He was reportedly working to become a bus driver.

According to the GoFundMe, James’ father received a call last week from someone claiming to be a Social Security agent. This person claimed that his SSN was compromised and that he would need to contact the sheriff’s department to remedy the situation.

While on the phone with someone claiming to be a sheriff, the man was told there was a warrant out for his arrest and that “he needed to do exactly as the agent told him to do.”

“Terrified that he was going to be sent to jail and his life’s savings was in jeopardy, he drove to the bank to withdraw his savings.

In a panic, he drove all over town with his chemo bag to purchased gift cards at Target, Wal-Mart, and Best Buy. The “agents” told

him his money would be protected by giving them the gift card numbers,” read a statement from James on the GoFundMe. All in all, the scammers made out with $18,000 of his money.

“After speaking to the real Sheriff and FBI, there is little to no chance of getting justice or retribution. My father worked his whole life and his savings was stolen from him in one day,” stated James. “My father feels violated, victimized and most of all embarrassed. We are doing our best to keep him in good spirits as he continues to fight his cancer.”

James created the fundraiser to not only help replace the thousands of dollars lost to the scammers, but also to spread awareness about the prevalence of these kinds of phone scams.

These scam callers will “spoof” a number, which means that it looks as if the actual sheriff’s department is calling based on the number, but in reality, it is someone else entirely.

“Please warn everyone you know about these devious plots to scam our loved ones and communities out of their hard-earned life savings,” James said.

As of August 2, the GoFundMe has only recouped $2,590 of the $18,000 goal.

If you wish to contribute, the fundraiser can be found by going to GoFundMe.com and searching for John James.

Omarr’s Astrological Forecast For the week of AUG 10 - aug 16

By Jeraldine Saunders

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Do what comes naturally and easily to you. Participate in activities that allow you to utilize your areas of expertise even it something else is vying for your attention. Trying something new and different should wait a day or two.

TAURUS (Apr. 20-May 20): It may be easier just to do it all yourself. Taking on a partner for a project may prove to be more of a hindrance than a help. Fly solo and you won’t waste valuable time sorting out differing opinions on the best course of action.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Focus on quality not quantity. Doing one task well will hold far more value than doing several just-average jobs. Concentrate on getting the details right and you’ll have a product to take pride in.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Courage is being afraid but going ahead anyway. You may need to must your inner confidence to progress through difficult situations this week, but you are up to the task. Check calendar reminders for obligations.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Take the path winwin compromise. Trying to impose your will is likely to be met with opposition so look for ways to create a satisfactory solution. You’ll be at your best when employing your imagination and ingenuity.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): No one can carry the whole weight of the world on their shoulders. You’ll be running in perpetual circles if you try to please everyone in the upcoming week. Choose carefully how to spend your

valuable time.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22.): Waste not, want not. A conservative approach to possessions and finances may lead you to recycle what is still useful or rein in careless spending. Don’t allow jealousy to skew your judgment.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Happy bees make the sweetest honey. A fun and enjoyable environment is always more conducive to achieving success with a project or endeavor.

Keeping your sense of humor should be the rule this week.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Take a deep breath. If you find that you are getting in over your head, you may want to take a break and recharge your batteries or choose easier-to-attain goals. Giving into casual whims is not advisable now.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Sometimes less is more. Handle delicate situations carefully and tactfully this week since pushing too hard could end up causing unintended consequences. An objective, subtle and measured approach works best.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Go at your own pace. Trying to keep up with everyone else may only wear you out so find the comfort zone that works for you and stick with it. Set healthy boundaries and uphold them.

PISCES (Feb. 19-Mar. 20): Take all the time you need. Don’t allow someone to limit your options by pressuring you to make a quick decision. Seek out alternative solutions or do some research to find the best choice for you.
