YOUR BIRTHDAY by Stella Wilder
Born today, you are the kind of person oth-
ers pay attention to, and it’s likely that you will
someday be the talk of the town -- but will it
be for the right reasons? Indeed, how you are
seen by others may not even be consistent
throughout your lifetime; you may be seen as
a hero at one point, and a villain at another,
and not because you are all that different.
Rather, you are so determined to be indepen-
dent, autonomous and true to yourself that
you refuse to adapt to changing circumstanc-
es.
THURSDAY, DECEMBER 16
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) --
Watch where you are going today, and take
care that you don’t cross paths with a rival who
is looking for some kind of fight.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Your
desires may become tangled with the realities
that you are facing today, and what is possible
may appear impossible -- and vice versa.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You may
reach a “point of no return” today -- or is that
“no returns”? You’ll want to be sure you are
profiting fairly from your efforts.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You can
make a change at the workplace that affects
you in a positive manner at home -- but the
reverse efforts won’t really work as expected.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You’re able
to lead others where they want to go, but
where is your guidance when you need it?
Perhaps you’ve not yet asked the right person.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You are put-
ting everything in the right order according to
those “in charge,” but you may still feel as
though something is out of place today.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You can keep
a great deal of information in your head today
and use it to your advantage too, but take care
you’re not just hoarding trivia!
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- There must
WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 15, 2021
TUESDAY, DECEMBER 14, 2021
be room for emotional development after an
encounter with someone who has you all
charged up. Don’t ignore how you feel!
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- The moment you
take full responsibility for that which was your
doing, you will actually be liberating yourself
in a new and valuable way.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You can see
things both as they are and as they might be
today, and you’ll want to transform that
“might be” into reality. You can do it!
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You know as
others don’t what’s really going on today. By
day’s end, you’ll be able to persuade a choice
few to assist you in your efforts.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You’re “in a
mood” today, and those you encounter aren’t
likely to keep their reactions to themselves.
Some conflicts are unavoidable.

last set for the sale, to have this foreclosure proceeding dismissed and the trust deed reinstated by
paying to the beneficiary of the entire amount due (other than such portion of the principal as would not
then be due had no default occurred) and by curing any other default complained of herein that is ca-
pable of being cured by tendering the performance required under the obligations or trust deed, and in
addition to paying said sums or tendering the performance necessary to cure the default, by paying all
costs and expenses actually incurred in enforcing the obligation and trust deed, together with trustee’s
fees and attorney’s fees not exceeding the amounts provided by said ORS 86.778. Notice is further
given that reinstatement or payoff quotes requested pursuant to ORS 86.786 and ORS 86.789 must
be timely communicated in a written request that complies with that statute, addressed to the trustee’s
“Reinstatements/Payoffs – ORS 86.786” either by personal delivery or by first class, certified mail,
return receipt requested, to the trustee’s address shown below. Due to potential conflicts with federal
law, persons having no record legal or equitable interest in the subject property will only receive infor-
mation concerning the lender’s estimated or actual bid. Lender bid information is also available at the
trustee’s website, www.logs.com/janeway_law_firm. In construing this notice, the masculine gender
includes the feminine and the neuter, the singular includes the plural, the word “grantor” includes any
successor in interest to the grantor as well as any other person owing an obligation, the performance of
which is secured by said trust deed, and the words “trustee” and “beneficiary” include their respective
successors in interest, if any. Also, please be advised that pursuant to the terms stated on the Deed of
Trust and Note, the beneficiary is allowed to conduct property inspections while property is in default.
This shall serve as notice that the beneficiary shall be conducting property inspections on the said
referenced property. Without limiting the trustee’s disclaimer of representations or warranties, Oregon
law requires the trustee to state in this notice that some residential property sold at a trustee’s sale may
have been used in manufacturing methamphetamines, the chemical components of which are known
to be toxic. Prospective purchasers of residential property should be aware of this potential danger
before deciding to place a bid for this property at the trustee’s sale. The Fair Debt Collection Practice
Act requires that we state the following: This is an attempt to collect a debt, and any information ob-
tained will be used for that purpose. If a discharge has been obtained by any party through bankruptcy
proceedings: This shall not be construed to be an attempt to collect the outstanding indebtedness or
hold you personally liable for the debt.
