It's not the typing or the doctors' handwriting that would deter me. My problem would be reading the symptoms and medical conditions. I'd have all of them. To say that I am easily influ- enced is like saying the Titanic sprang a leak. Knowing this about myself, I wasn't all that surprised to end up with yet another condition after watching an episode of "The Oprah Win- frey Show." It was devoted to the "disease to please." I passed her "do you have the disease to please?" self-diagnosis quiz with flying colors. "Do you ever say 'yes' when what you really want to say is 'no'?" Of course I do. Doesn't everyone? Or how about this one: "Is it important to you to be liked by nearly everyone in your life?" I whipped through that quiz in about 10 seconds flat, answering every question yes, yes, yes, yes and ... yes! I am learning that this "dis- ease" is insidious as it wends its way through mind and body. It starts with wanting to be a good person. You want to be liked. You want to be chosen first, never last. You respond to every- The Department of Economics, California State University, Chico, presents guest lecturer Robert Leeson, currently the Vis- iting Professor of Economics at Stanford University and a Hoover Institute Fellow, at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Aug. 31 in Holt 170. Leeson was appointed as an adjunct professor in the Notre Dame School of Business in 2008. one's requests and just keep doing more and more with promptness and perfec- tion. In a way, this might seem like more of a conflict than a revelation. After all, aren't we called to act with generosity out of hearts of grati- tude and service? Isn't it selfish always to say no? There is a huge dif- ference between authentic service and using it as an opportu- nity to manipulate. Some doctors say the "disease to please" can actually kill us. The emotional buildup of not being able to say no increases our stress hormones, such as adrenaline. That makes our hearts beat faster than normal, our blood pressure rise and our blood vessels nar- row. That can lead to a heart attack, a stroke or even cancer. So what's the treatment? • Analyze your motivation. Before you say yes to anything, do a quick self-analysis. Why am I doing this? Why am I buying this? What am I expecting in return? If you can answer "noth- ing in return," then your motiva- tion is pure. If there's another answer, it's probably some form of manipulation. • Realize you are in control. Becoming assertive is the way to arrest this dis- ease. It takes courage to say no, to be honest and to set limits. Decide how much you will spend. Then stick to it. Mary Hunt Everyday Cheapskate • Buy time. Experts say that time is the best antidote for the "disease to please," whether it be five minutes or five months. Never answer on the spot. Nothing is so urgent you cannot take time to think about it. Acting to please can be noble and gratifying, as long as the decision to do so is for the joy it brings, not for what you expect to get in return.

Economist to speak on ‘Capitalism Without Bubbles’ His articles have appeared in a number of the world’s leading journals, including the Economic Journal, Economica, The Aus- tralian Quarterly and History of Political Economy. Leeson was ranked 17th (joint- ly with Nobel Laureate Paul Samuelson) in the list of the world’s top 500 economists on the basis of the number of journal articles included in the ECONLIT database of the American Eco- nomic Association. Milton Friedman made Leeson his de facto literary executor by granting permission to reproduce all his books, articles, correspon- dence and diary entries in “Milton Friedman’s Collected Writings.” This lecture is free and open to the public.

In the event the defendant violates a non-drug related term of probation the court may then elect to sentence defendant to jail or prison. The Tehama County District Attorney’s Office contends that each criminal case is unique and that in cer- tain, specific, cases a defendant should be sentenced to a combina- tion of drug treatment and jail time. We fur- ther contend that in other specific cases where a defendant has an extensive criminal record and/or a history of non-compliance with either previous grants of probation or previous grants of drug treatment, a state prison sentence should properly be imposed. • Jeffrey Doyle Reynolds was sentenced to Prop. 36 probation for possession of concen- trated cannabis.
