Diagnosis
The psychology instructor had just finished a
lecture on mental health and was giving an oral test.
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?"

A guy was hitch-hiking on a very dark and stormy
night. Suddenly he saw a car roll slowly toward him and
stop.
He jumped into the back seat and closed the
door. Then realized there was nobody behind the wheel.
Don’t skip the guacamole. 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

Mother decided that 10-year-old Cathy should get
something practical for her birthday. She said, “Suppose we open a savings account for you?
“It’s your account,” mother said as they arrived
at the bank, “so you fill out the application.” Cathy
was doing fine until she came to the space for “Name

STORING OR FREEZING CALIFORNIA AVOCADOS
Ripe fruit can be stored in the refrigerator uncut for two
to three days. To store cut fruit, sprinkle it with lemon or lime
juice or white vinegar and place it in an air-tight covered container in your refrigerator. Eat within a day or two. If refrigerated guacamole turns brown during storage, simply discard
the top, browned layer.
When you have an abundance of fresh fruit, consider
freezing it. Although avocados are not satisfactorily frozen
whole or sliced, pureed avocados freeze very well and can be
used in salads, sandwiches and dips. Wash, seed and peel the
fruit as described above.
Puree the flesh, adding one tablespoon of lemon juice for
each two pureed avocados. Pack the puree into a rigid container, leaving 1 inch of headspace. Seal and label the containers. Freeze and use within four to five months.

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.
