Speaking specifically about manic depression, she asked, "How would you diagnose a patient who walks back and forth screaming at the top of his lungs one minute, then sits in a chair weeping uncontrollably the next?" A young man in the rear raised his hand and answered, "He's probably a basketball coach." Hitch-hiking But the car started slowly rolling forward again. He was really freaked out when he noticed that a mysterious hand appeared just before every curve. The guy jumped out of the car and ran to the nearest town. In shock, he went to a restaurant and started telling everybody about the horrible experience he just went through. Then two guys walked into the same restaurant. Looking around for a table one said, "Hey, look, isn't that the jerk who got in the car when we were pushing it?" GUACAMOLE An Engineer's Conversion Factors 1.

Its main ingredient is avocados, which are rich in magnesium. The more magnesium in your diet, the less likely you are to develop type 2 diabetes and heart disease, say Harvard University researchers. (Other magnesium-rich foods include leafy greens, nuts, whole grains, some fruits, and shellfish.) Magnesium isn’t the only benefit. Avocados are also full of mono-unsaturated fats, particularly one called oleic acid. It helps to raise “good” cholesterol levels in the body and lower “bad” cholesterol. Each avocado contains a lot of potassium. Doctors at the University of Mississippi Medical Center say people who eat diets high in potassium have a lower risk of high blood pressure. Avocados are rich in folate, which keeps nerves functioning properly, fights birth defects, and reduces the risk of heart disease. Half an avocado contains 14 percent of the recommended daily value of folate. The idea for healthful living is not to rush out and buy avocados by the dozen. It is to include this healthful food in your diet whenever you want it. If you have never worked with an avocado, here’s how to get started: If they are not soft to the touch, let them stand on the counter a day or two to ripen. To open one, cut it lengthwise all around the pit. Twist the halves in opposite directions to separate them, and remove the pit with a spoon. Cut two avocados in half. Remove the pits and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Squeeze the juice of one lemon into it. Add two tablespoons olive oil, one small finely chopped onion, one crushed garlic clove, 1/2 pound tomatoes (skinned, seeded, and finely chopped), 1/2 teaspoon salt, and a dash of Tabasco sauce. Mash. Top with freshly chopped parsley and use as a dip for low-fat, baked corn chips. Can You Free Yourself from Some Investment Taxes? April 24 has been designated Tax Freedom Day for 2015. Tax Freedom Day, calculated by the Tax Foundation, is the day when the nation as a whole has earned enough money to pay off its total tax bill for the year. So it may be a good time to review your own situation to determine if you can “free” yourself from some investment-related taxes in the future. Of course, Tax Freedom Day is something of a fiction, in practical terms, because most people pay their taxes throughout the year via payroll deductions. Also, you may not mind paying your share of taxes because your tax dollars are used in a variety of ways — such as law enforcement, food safety, road maintenance, public education and so on — that, taken to- 401(k).

SHERIFF’S LOG continued From the Sheriff’s Office CLASSIFIED ADS Deputies give chase then arrest driver of stolen car in Jones Valley PROPERTIES FOR SALE By Sergeant Tyler Thompson On 04/11/15, at approximately 1130 hours, a deputy from the City of Shasta Lake Division was patrolling the area of Montana Avenue and La Mesa Avenue in Shasta Lake. The deputy noticed a white Acura without a license plate affixed to the front bumper, in violation of California Vehicle Code §5200(a). The deputy attempted to stop the Acura to contact the driver, later identified as 41-year-old Richard Price Burger of Redding. Burger fled in the vehicle. A records check of the rear license plate revealed the vehicle was stolen from the Redding area. Burger led deputies through side streets within the City of Shasta Lake, out Union School Road and to Bear Mountain Road. Due to safety concerns as a result of Burger’s disregard for the safety of the motoring public and pedestrians, the deputy terminated the pursuit. Luckily, the California Highway Patrol helicopter was able to locate the Acura moments later. The CHP helicopter followed the Acura to a dead-end road in the area of Highview Trail in Jones Valley. The CHP helicopter kept a visual on Burger as he fled from the vehicle on foot. As deputies arrived on scene, they were directed to Burger’s location where he was attempting to hide in some brush, approximately 600 years from the Acura. Deputies were able to take Burger into custody without further incident. Burger was booked into Shasta County Jail on the following charges: CVC §2800.2(a), Evading police officer with disregard to safety; PC §496(a), Receiving known stolen property; PC §148(a) (1), Delaying/obstructing public officer in duties; PC §22810(a), Felon in possession of tear gas/ pepper spray.
