hat do you reach for around 3 in the afternoon?
Something salty? Something crunchy? Something creamy, smooth and sweet? These days,
more and more snackers are looking for something
holesome and satisfying to get them through the
fternoon.
Here’s one snacking choice you may not have thought
f: pudding. When pudding is made right — just the way
our grandma used to — it’s made with real ingredients
ke milk and eggs, cooked slowly until it’s creamy and
elicious. While cooking up your own pudding is a fun
nd satisfying weekend or evening project, when you need
quick afternoon snack, that’s probably not in the cards.
Fortunately, there are still some companies making
udding just the way you would at home, slowly simmered
o perfection. This is great news for people who want a
mooth and creamy snack they can feel good about. There’s
good reason why simple, comforting pudding was a
avorite childhood snack — and is still a wholesome snack
hoice today.
Simple Ideas for a Delicious Snack
udding is perfect straight out of the refrigerator, of
ourse, and all you need to enjoy it is a spoon. But you
an make it your own with other ingredients that you
robably have right in your kitchen. Take a look at your
pice rack: You’ve probably got cinnamon, nutmeg and
ayenne pepper. In your pantry, you’ve got crunchy
ookies, pretzels and nuts. Fresh and frozen fruit are
ways good to have on hand. Even canned and shelfable packs of tropical fruits can top your pudding.
efore you know it, you’ll be seeing surprising pudding
airings everywhere you look.
With a little creativity, you could have a unique pudding
nack every day of the week. We’ve got a few ideas to get
ou started.

Sacramento County, CA (MPG) -
Supporters greeted the funeral procession
of fallen Sacramento Sheriff’s Deputy
Danny Oliver Monday afternoon as it
traveled from Interstate 80 eastbound,
down Greenback Lane. Law enforcement
and first-responder agencies from all over
California participated in the solemn show
of solidarity, coming from as far away
as San Luis Obispo, Riverside County,
Inyo County, and even Sparks, Nevada.
Hundreds of sheriff’s department, police,
fire, and California Highway Patrol units
accompanied the procession as it departed
from the public funeral services held at
Adventure Christian Church in Roseville
and traveled to the East Lawn Cemetery

By Linda Harper
Sacramento Region, CA (MPG) - Year after
year, Bill McAnally Racing Promotions
(BMRP) strives to bring the thrill of
NASCAR racing to Roseville in grand
fashion. This year was no exception as
the recent Toyota NAPA Auto Parts 150,
held at the All American Speedway in
Roseville, was a huge success. Recordsetting car counts and an outstanding fan
turnout made for a spectacular night of
nationally televised racing.
This marked the 7th consecutive year
that BMRP has hosted the NASCAR
K&N Pro Series West at the AAS 3/4
mile track. It continues to be the largest attended single-day event to impact
Placer County, according to Placer Valley
Tourism. The event generates millions
of dollars for Placer County, and, most
importantly, it benefits the Placer Breast
Cancer Endowment and UC Davis Cancer
Research Center. “The NASCAR K&N
Pro Series at the All American Speedway
is an event we look forward to each year,”
said Donna Dotti, director of sales for
Placer Valley Tourism. “Racing teams and
spectators travel from all over California
and Nevada for this race, generating
multi-night hotel stays and boosting our
county’s economy. We have worked with
Bill McAnally and his team since 2008
and can always count on them for a great
evening of racing!”
In 2013, the K&N Pro Series West
raised $20,000 to assist in funding a
fulltime chair in the UC Davis Cancer
Research Center. This year, the bar was
raised even higher. NASCAR and the racing community came together and raised
$25,000 for the Endowment, helping them
continue to fight the battle to end breast
cancer.
“The members of the Placer Breast
Cancer Endowment are grateful for the
generosity and tremendous support that
Bill McAnally and his team have provided over the past two years to help find
a cure for breast cancer through research
at UC Davis Comprehensive Cancer
Center,” said Carol Garcia, co-founder
and chairperson of the Placer Breast
Cancer Endowment.
The success of the 2014 Fall Classic
can be attributed to the work of a community banded together to produce and
participate in a great event for a great
cause. Countless volunteers and sponsors
from throughout the valley came together
to bring a night of racing many will long
remember.
Approximately 100 cars packed into
the pit area of All American Speedway.
The premier event, NASCAR K&N Pro
Series West, showcased 22 entries on the
roster, while the Pacific Challenge Series
Late Models brought 40 talented teams to
Roseville. Mini Cup drivers traveled from
as far away as Alberta, Canada to form a

Respect for Fallen Sheriff’s Deputy
in Sacramento for the family’s private burial service.
“All of us in the first responder industry, from the police to fire, we all consider each other brothers and sisters,” said Sacramento Metro Fire Department
Captain Brad Reynolds. “It’s vitally important that we all share in this and show
our support for their family members. As sad as an event as this is to bring us all
together, it’s very heartfelt to see this all happen.”
Patrick Fintel of Sacramento County was present for the entire half-hour long
procession to honor the sacrifice made by Deputy Oliver and his family. “I came
to show respect to the fallen officers and their family and to let them know that
we’re all thinking about them,” said Fintel. “It is very important to come out and
support our community and law enforcement.”
Donna Martinez of Placer County had a more personal inspiration. Her husband is a Sacramento County Sheriff officer. “The community support, I think it’s
fabulous,” she said. “Oftentimes you don’t realize how big your community is or
how much they care about your officers until something like this happens, which
is unfortunate. But it is a truly good thing to see these people out here today.”
Deputy Danny Oliver, a 15-year veteran of the of the Sacramento County
Sheriff’s Department, was killed in the line of duty on October 24th while investigating a suspicious vehicle on the 2000 block of Arden Way. He is survived by
his wife and two daughters.

Sacramento Sheriff’s Deputies lead the funeral procession of fallen Deputy Danny
Oliver eastbound on Greenback Lane to the Sierra Hills Memorial Park and East Lawn

North Highlands, CA (MPG) -
Saturday, October 25th saw the
return of the North Highlands
Jubilee hosted by the Rotary Club
of Foothill-Highlands. Weather
played a big role in the event with
the morning rain clearing in time
for the set up by the Pacific High
School JROTC cadets. The day
turned out to be a wonderful fall
day at Freedom Park in North
Highlands filled with fun, laughter,
and tantalizing aromas from a wide
variety of great food. This year’s
Jubilee saw an estimated crowd of
3,000+ attendees with families and
couples, young and old, enjoying all
the festivities. The Rotary club has
posted event photos and videos on
their website and on the new North
Highlands Jubilee 2014 Facebook
page.
The event started with
Sacramento County Supervisor
Susan Peters’ welcoming remarks
and request that all attendees join
her in a moment of silence to pay
tribute to Fallen Sacramento County
Deputy and North Highlands POP
Officer Danny Oliver who was
killed in the line of duty the day
before the event.
Supervisor Phil Serna recognized
the efforts of the Rotary club and
local volunteers who helped organize the event. The Rotary club
relied on the dedicated support
of volunteers including 35 members from the Pacific High School
JROTC led by Command Sergeant
Major Jesse Topasna, the Antelope
High School Interact Club (high
school level of Rotary), CSUS
ROTARACT (college level of
Rotary), and over 30 residents from
Serna Village who helped with
setup and running the games in the
Kid’s Zone. Finally, long-standing
North Highlands community member Jim Simpson with the Visions
Task Force and VFW Post 4647
was instrumental with logistics in
directing the setup and cleanup of
the event.
Over 80 local companies and
community resources provided
information on services and healthcare to the attendees. Volunteer
Kathy Cooper was instrumental in
coordinating all the vendors and
booths. These included Rotary,
Kaiser Permanente, North
Highlands Recreation and Parks
District, State Farm, Robinsons
Taekwondo, Hydrex Pest Control,
Briggs Roofing, Covered California,
and many others. The Country Club
Lions Club provided vision testing to over 40 North Highlands
residents.
Entertainment Chairperson
Pastor Juanita Mason from the
Antelope Upper Room Ministries
organized a full line up of fun and
entertainment by 12 local groups
including the CCAA Dragon Jazz
Band, Taptastic, North Highlands
Parks and Recreation Cheerleaders,
and Tina B and Soul Line Dancers.
The Pacific High School JROTC
set up their obstacle training course
with the highlight being an 80-foot
Zip Line for kids to fly through the
trees of Freedom Park.
The event concluded with a
live performance by the Antelope
High School Titan Marching
Band, recently selected to represent California in the 2015 National
Independence Day parade in
Washington, D.C. The 115 members surrounded the park’s main
play structure and performed to the
remaining attendees at the Jubilee.
The Antelope High School Band
has set up a “GoFundMe” site to
help raise money to travel to the
D.C. event.
This year’s North Highlands
Jubilee was sponsored by
Supervisors Susan Peters and Phil
Serna, Recycling Industries, Safe
Credit Union, Kaiser Permanente
- Thrive, Wal Mart, SMUD,
Assembly Member Ken Cooley,
Plumbers and Pipe Fitters Local
447, Laborers Local 185, the North
County Messenger, McClellan Park,
Umpqua Bank, Edward Jones, River
Ridge Realty, Republic Services,

this year and is looking forward to
hosting it again next year. It is tentatively scheduled at Freedom Park
on Saturday, October 10th, 2015.

Marvelene A. J. Weyer, a
realtor for over 28 years, has
long pondered the dilemma
of veterans who come home
after fighting for our country
and want to get on with their
lives. The same goes for veterans who have served in all of
our wars who may not know
about or understand the benefits to which they are entitled.
She and her team have assembled a group of professionals
to assist veterans in learning all aspects of real estate.
Any veteran desiring to purchase or sell a home can
obtain free professional assistance with repairing credit,
reverse mortgage, short sale,
finding the right home, securing a loan, and learning about
other aspects of a real estate
transaction such as pest control, home inspections, money
saving deductions, and what
kind of insurance is needed
to protect the home. A workshop seminar will be held on
November 9th from 11:30

The Power of
Memorization
By Pastor Ray Dare
We all get stressed from time
to time. We all get tempted,
need wisdom and guidance for
decisions, need comfort when
we’re sad, need help sharing the
things of God with others, and
need peace when we’re worried.
All these things can be realized
through memorizing Scripture. I
know of no other single spiritual
exercise as powerful as memorizing God’s Word.
No other single exercise pays
greater spiritual dividends! Your
spiritual walk is strengthened.
Your attitudes and outlook
change. Your confidence soars!
Your faith will grow stronger.
Decision making and sharing what God is doing in your
life will become easier. All this
happens through memorizing
Scripture.
You may be thinking, “I’m not
disciplined enough!” Remember
discipline is “delayed gratification”. That’s all it is. I do the
difficult now to enjoy the benefits later. If you understood
the benefits of Scripture memorization, you would have no
problem memorizing a verse a
week. If you’re not memorizing
Scripture, it just means that you
don’t yet understand the tremendous benefits.
Some of you are saying, “I
just can’t memorize anything.”
Baloney! We remember what
is important to us. I know guys
who can give you batting averages of every S.F. Giants player!
I know teenagers who can quote
the top ten for the last five years.
I know ladies that can give you
recipes or the phone numbers
of their friends. You remember
what’s important to you.
If you’re interested in spiritual
strength and power then you’re
going to be able to do it. How
important was it to David? Psalm
119:72 “The law you gave me
means more to me than all the
money in the world.” That’s how
important God’s Word ought to
be to us.
So how do you do it? You
can memorize during your quiet
time. Another good time is when
you’re exercising. I like to do it
while I’m waiting in a line at the
store or in spare moments.
Many times I’ll take a scripture verse written on a little card
or tag and I’ll work on it, memorize it, speak it out loud or
whisper it. At bedtime is a good
time so you go to sleep thinking
spiritual thoughts.
There are three major keys to
memorizing scripture: The first
key is to review. Go over and
over it. The second key to memorizing scripture is to review.
The third key is to review.
Say the verse reference before
and after. The hardest part to
remember is the reference, the
address. So say it at the start and
at the end. Read the verse aloud
many times. You memorize by
saying it aloud. You don’t memorize things by reading it. You
memorize things because your
ear is a large factor with what
you memorize.
Memory is a skill you can
learn. It’s a muscle you can
strengthen. In fact, memorizing
Scripture will cause your brain
to have a stronger memory in
other areas. Study after study
has shown this. Most important,
Jesus Christ will help you. “I can
do all things through Christ who
strengthens me.” Philippians
4:13. By the way, that verse
would be a great verse to memorize.

School’s on the Horizon
Dear Dave,
My husband will be leaving his full-time job in a year
so that he can go back to school
full-time and finish his degree.
We’ve both agreed this is what
we want to do, but it means that
we’ll go from a yearly income of
$90,000 to $45,000. We’ll have
tuition assistance from my job
and his veteran’s stipend to help
pay for things, plus we’re debtfree except for our house. But in
this scenario, once we complete
Baby Step 3 should we move
directly to Baby Step 4 or continue saving?
- Erin
Dear Erin,
I think this is a good plan, as
long as the two of you are on the
same page and you’re willing to
save like crazy for the next year
and beyond. Even with help from
your employer and his stipend
you’ll still have some expenses,
so you’ll have to be ready.
Once you complete Baby Step
3, which is having three to six
months of expenses set aside as
an emergency fund, Baby Step
4 is usually starting to invest 15
percent of your income toward
retirement. In this case, while
he’s finishing his degree, you’re
not investing for retirement
directly but you are investing in
your husband and your future
together. That’s a great investment, by the way. As long as
he’s studying something that has
marketplace application, you’re
setting the stage for him to make
back the money put into his
degree and much more.
If that’s the plan, and he’s not
off pursuing a Ph.D. in something like German polka history,
you two are making a great
investment. So work hard now,
cut all the corners you can and
pile up money so you two can
get through his time in school!
- Dave
Selling a Car with a Lien
Dear Dave,
How do you sell a vehicle with
a lien amount that’s higher than
the actual value of the car?
- Miranda
Dear Miranda,
First, you have to find a way to
cover the difference between the
amount of the lien and what you
can get for the car. Let’s look at
an example.
If the car is worth $15,000,
and you owe $18,000, that
would leave you $3,000 in the
hole. How do you get out of that
car? The bank holds the title, and
until you give them the payoff
amount of $18,000, you’re not
getting the title. The easiest and
simplest way would be if you
had $3,000 on hand to make up
the difference. But if someone
comes along and buys the car
from you for $15,000, you’ve got
to be able to cover the remaining
$3,000, right?
Barring the best-case scenario
where you actually have the
money, you could go to a local
bank or credit union and borrow the remaining $3,000. I hate
debt, but being $3,000 in the
hole is a lot better than $18,000
in the hole. Then, you could turn
around and pay back the $3,000
quickly.
After that, you’d give the total
amount owed to the bank. They
would give you the title, and you
sign it over to the new owner.
That’s how it works!
- Dave

ENERGIES OF
LOVE PART II
If you remember last time
on POPPOFF, I shared the four
“Energetic Stress Styles” that I got
from Donna Eden and Dr. David
Feinstein they covered in their
book “The Energies of Love.”
Donna is a pioneer in energy
medicine and David is a clinical Psychologist. They claim they
have garnered experience from
their couple’s workshops that are
keys to a fulfilling partnership. I
promised you some practical tips
to fire up that relationship, so no
more talk, here they are.
1) HUG OFTEN. Hugs get your
positive energies to intermingle and meld. Relaxing even into
a six-second full-body embrace
increases serotonin levels, leaving you feel closer and, if you
were having a disagreement, less
irritable.
2) GIVE YOUR PARTNER A
SPINAL FLUSH. Reflex points
that impact every one of your
body’s major energy pathways are
situated along the spine. They go
into a detailed description of what
to do next, but not enough time
here. But it’s in the book.
3)SUPPORT
THE
PRODUCTION
OF
OXYTOCIN. Energy techniques
can influence your hormone levels.
We know sex produces oxytocin, but so can this one-minute
technique. It begins by breathing
slowly and deeply as you draw
your hands up from your pubic
bone until you get to the center
of your chest. Before you exhale,
move your hands up and out
toward your sides as if you were
tracing a heart above and around
your breasts. Slowly exhale as
you being your hands back toward
your pubic bone, completing the
tracing of a large heart over your
torso. Repeat a few times and finish by drawing your hands up the
center of your chest and holding them over your heart for two
breaths.
4) STRETCH. When you feel
stale or tense, stand and imagine
an invisible rope hanging down
over your head. Reach up and pull
it down with one hand and then
the other, alternating hands for at
least a minute.
5) HOOK UP. If you are feeling
disconnected from yourself or your
partner, place the middle finger of
one hand on your “third eye” and
the middle finger of your other on
your navel. Gently press both fingers inward, pull them upward,
and hold at least three deep full
breaths.
6) SCAN FOR WHAT YOU
APPRECIATE ABOUT YOUR
PARTNER AND STATE IT.
Often!
7) USE A GENTLE OPENING
FOR TOUGH TOPICS. The
way you bring up a delicate topic
will have an immediate impact on
your partner’s biochemistry and
thus the energy that is activated in
each of you and between you.
Wells Fargo
ome for the Holidays
8) KEEP YOUR ENERGIES
MOVING IN A CRISS-CROSS
PATTERN. Under stress, your
energies lose the natural crossover configuration that supports
best thinking. Place either hand
on its opposite shoulder and press
hard behind the shoulder with your
fingers. Drag your hand over your
shoulder, maintaining pressure.
Continue with less pressure now,
to your opposite hip. Repeat two
or three times. Shift to other side.
9) BALANCE YOUR ENERGIES RATHER THAN
BATTLING YOUR PARTNER.
If tension begins to rise between
you and either calls for a cease
fire, you should both…by ironclad
pre-agreement…stop the argument, mid-sentence if necessary.
Then, immediately set about shifting your energies.

Lyric Opera of Chicago
10) GET CURIOUS ABOUT
YOUR PARTNER’S STRESS
RESPONSE STYLE. Rather than
judging your partner or going into
a defense mode, give your partner
the benefit of the doubt.

the secret
to being organized
Pam Young’s Corner
The Book that Changed Flylady’s Life
By Pam Young
I ran into a Flybaby at the airport
in Boston. (What’s a Flybaby? It’s
a person who follows the nationally
known woman who helps women
get organized via the internet. She
wears purple as do many of her
followers. I happen to be her mentor.) How could I miss this follower
in the airport? She had a purple
Flylady office in a bag, (sort of a
“mobile desk), was wearing purple and was working on deskwork.
I went over to her and said,
“I recognize your office in a bag,
have you read Sink Reflections
(Flylady’s book)?”
Fifteen minutes later she ran out
of breath from espousing her joy
and gratitude for Flylady! Then she
asked me if I was a Flybaby and I
said,
“Well, not exactly, but I’m the
reason you’re one.” She looked
a little confused so I told her this
story.
My sister and I wrote a
book called Sidetracked Home
Executives: from pigpen to paradise in 1977. We were slobs
(SLOB stands for Spontaneous,
Lighthearted, Optimistic and
Beloved) and we reformed. That
little book was the first “get organized” book on the market written
by two people who had been desperately disorganized and turned
the situation around 180 degrees.
It was an overnight success (well
it took about a year) and we were
whisked around the country to
appear on hundreds of television
and radio shows. We met stars
and got to play with Oprah many
times, who, by the way, is a SHE
(Sidetracked Home Executive).
Then we wrote a book called The
Sidetracked Sister’s Happiness File
and that’s how Flylady comes onto
the scene. That book is about using
3x5 cards to help a person be happier. Marla (that’s Flylady’s real
name) was reading that book in bed
with her now ex-husband, when
she started giggling. Her husband
said, “What’s so funny?” So she
read the excerpt to him (I’ll include
it in this essay) and he said, “That’s
not funny at all, that’s disgusting.”
She realized at that moment that
this marriage was not working; that
this man didn’t have a sense of
humor and she divorced soon after
“the reading.” I know this story
because Marla called our office
sometime in the early 90s, I happened to answer the phone and she
told me what had happened. We’ve
been friends for almost 20 years
and we’ve helped each other and
lifted each other up throughout the
time we’ve been blessed to know
each other. Our mutual selflessness has given us both an ability to
help disorganized women learn to
be organized not to please someone else, but to please themselves.
Our message has always been laced
with love and gratitude and that’s
what has fed our friendship.
Now I’ve told you that my book
changed Marla’s life in a radical
way, but Marla turned around and
changed, not only my life but my
husband’s life in a drastic way!
Almost four years ago, I received
a book in the mail as a surprise gift
from Marla. It was entitled, Why
We Get Fat and What We Can Do
About It, by Gary Taubes. That
book put us on the most healthful
track we could ever be on! Because
of that book, we don’t count calories, we don’t gain weight AND we
are happier! Yes, that’s one of the
main changes that happened when
we began a high fat, low carbohydrate diet. Probably because we are
NEVER hungry so we aren’t starving our brains of the nutrients a
high fat diet gives them.
I did have to get a new physician who understands the science
behind a Paleo diet and she told
me that when we eat more fat our
brains thrive! She also believes
that the epidemic of Parkinson’s,
Alzheimer’s and dementia are
directly related to the low fat craze
mainstream medicine and our government has pushed down our
throats since the 60s. She should
know, she’s also a psychiatrist.
So I can say, “Because of Marla
we have no sugar in our house,”
(except for a one-pound box that’s
nowhere near empty, because it’s
used for when company wants
sugar in tea or coffee). (I did have a
very small piece of wedding cake a
couple years ago and I had a hangover like I had in my younger days
of drinking too much.)
Here’s that excerpt.
We [my sister and I] spent a lot of
our time in our room. We avoided
having to go downstairs, because
when Mom would see us, she’d
think of things for us to do…like
housework. We invented ways
to stay self-contained upstairs.
Having no bathroom up there posed
a problem until we thought of using
the window. We opted for the windowsill above the dining room,
facing the secluded canyon. Sitting
on the edge with our feet outside
the window, we watched the trickles as they flowed down the mossy
sloping roof out of sight. Our parents never knew until years later,
when Dad installed a TV antenna
on the roof and was puzzled by the
two distinct paths carved out of the
green moss. He told Mom that it
was strange that the moss was only
dead in two strips.

FAMILY FEATURES
W
hat do you reach for around 3 in the afternoon?
Something salty? Something crunchy? Something creamy, smooth and sweet? These days,
more and more snackers are looking for something
wholesome and satisfying to get them through the
afternoon.
Here’s one snacking choice you may not have thought
of: pudding. When pudding is made right — just the way
your grandma used to — it’s made with real ingredients
like milk and eggs, cooked slowly until it’s creamy and
delicious. While cooking up your own pudding is a fun
and satisfying weekend or evening project, when you need
a quick afternoon snack, that’s probably not in the cards.
Fortunately, there are still some companies making
pudding just the way you would at home, slowly simmered
to perfection. This is great news for people who want a
smooth and creamy snack they can feel good about. There’s
a good reason why simple, comforting pudding was a
favorite childhood snack — and is still a wholesome snack
choice today.
Simple Ideas for a Delicious Snack
Candied Almond Slivers and Tapioca Pudding —
Spoon tapioca pudding into a dish. Top with candied
almond slivers.
Pudding is perfect straight out of the refrigerator, of
course, and all you need to enjoy it is a spoon. But you
can make it your own with other ingredients that you
probably have right in your kitchen. Take a look at your
spice rack: You’ve probably got cinnamon, nutmeg and
cayenne pepper. In your pantry, you’ve got crunchy
cookies, pretzels and nuts. Fresh and frozen fruit are
always good to have on hand. Even canned and shelfstable packs of tropical fruits can top your pudding.
Before you know it, you’ll be seeing surprising pudding
pairings everywhere you look.
With a little creativity, you could have a unique pudding
snack every day of the week. We’ve got a few ideas to get
you started.

mint pieces.

blackberries. Layer blackberries and Kozy Shack Rice
Pudding in small dish. Top with any remaining fruit and a
mint leaf.

Chocolate Pudding in a small dish. Top with extra raspberries and a dollop of whipped cream.
Chocolate Pudding — Spoon Kozy Shack Chocolate
Pudding into a colorful cup. Top with a dollop of whipped
cream and a cookie.

shortbread cookies. Spoon into the bottom of a small dish.
Top with Kozy Shack Tapioca pudding, a sprinkle of lemon
zest and assorted fresh berries.

and Kozy Shack Tapioca Pudding in a small dish. Top with a chocolate-drizzled
