Refilling the name- brand cereal box with its store-brand alternative was one of my favorites. Today's first tipster made me smile with her clever trick. I am adding this trick to my playbook. Just please don't tell my family. THE EYES HAVE IT. My hus- band always wanted more cheese in the macaroni and cheese. Then I started adding just a drop or two of yellow food coloring. Now he says, "This is the way I like it, nice and cheesy." It even tastes richer to me, and I know the secret! -- Jeannine, Minnesota OFF WITH THEIR TAGS! Clothing tags can be unsightly and even uncomfortable. It's tempting to cut them off, but what if they have important washing instructions on them? Now I cut off the care instruction tag and staple it to an index card. On the card I write a note describing the article of cloth- ing (e.g., "long black sweater"). I tape the card inside the door of my laundry cupboard. I have several tags on one card. If I get rid of the article of clothing, I simply cut off that part of the card. Works great for me, and I don't have to guess. -- Nancy, California INSIDE OUT, OUT THE DOOR. When my daughter outgrows clothing items, she knows to turn them inside out before she puts them in the wash. When I am folding laun- dry, I know not to put the items back in her drawers. Instead, I put outgrown items in a bin set aside for clothing donations. Of course, she also knows that she can- not carelessly throw inside-out clothing in the laundry. Otherwise her favorite shirt may end up given away! -- Brenda, Pennsylvania MAGIC DETER- Mary Hunt GENT. Regular blue Dawn dishwashing liq- uid cleans oil and other automotive spills on con- crete. Squirt it on, and let it stand for a day or two. It may disappear or require a little scrubbing. It's amazing! -- Laurene, Pennsylvania FRIDGE ORGANIZER. To orga- nize my refrigerator, I use an old ice- cube box or a plastic shoe box to store smaller jars. If I need something that is in that container, I pull it out of the fridge and get what I need (saving energy by not leaving the door open while I look). If a spill occurs, I only Everyday Cheapskate have to wash the container, not the shelf it was sitting on. -- Jill, e-mail VALUABLE PARENTING. When my son was 6 years old, he learned a lesson in saving money on food. I told him that he could choose whatever cereal he wanted, and he chose one that had marsh- mallows in it. He was unhappy when I showed him that if he got the same cereal without the marsh- mallows, he could get a larger package for less money. Then I said, "Now let's see what a package of marshmallows costs." He never asked for cereal with marshmallows in it again but often would ask for cereal and a bag of marsh- mallows. -- Luli, British Columbia Would you like to send a tip to Mary?

Corning to host USDA jobs forum On Thursday evening Jan. 13 at 5, the U.S. Department of Agriculture Rural Development is holding the "Jobs, Economic Development and Sus- tainable Communities" forum in the Corning Council Chambers. Glenda Humiston, state director of USDA Rural Development, plans to attend the forum representing Rural Development. These forums have been held throughout the coun- try at the request of the White House to USDA. Atten- dees at past forums include local government offi- cials, economic development and community devel- opment professionals, representatives from schools and healthcare and interested community members. Since last year a number of the items that were identified in the Jobs Report have been accom- plished. USDA Rural Development would like to hold a similar round of public forums this year to: report on accomplishments toward current recom- mendations; ask if there are issues and recommenda- tions that need to be added; and solicit individuals and groups to champion action items in the report. USDA Rural Development will invite everyone who attended last year’s forum as well as various interest groups and elected officials. Here is the web- site containing the findings in last year’s report: http://www.rurdev.usda.gov/CA-Home.html For more information, write to Janice L.

Calif court: Cops can search texts without warrant SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — The California Supreme Court ruled Monday that police do not need a warrant to search a cell phone carried by someone under arrest. The justices determined a Ventura County deputy had the right to conduct a warrantless search of the text messages of a man he had arrested on suspicion of participating in a drug deal. The state court ruled 5-2 that U.S. Supreme Court precedent affirms that police can search items found on defendants when they are arrested. However, the San Francisco Chronicle reported that in 2007, U.S. District Court Judge Susan Ill- ston ruled that police could not search the cell Police reports The following infor- mation is compiled from Red Bluff Police Depart- ment, Tehama County Sheriff’s Department, Corning Police Depart- ment and California Highway Patrol. Arrests • Francisco Cervantes Ochoa, 47, of Stockton, also known as Jose Luis Cervantes, was arrested Monday at the Tehama County Jail. He was booked on felony charges of illegal entry. • Carl Randolph Teha- da Sr., 55, of Red Bluff, also known as Carl Ran- dol Tehada or Carl James Tehada, was arrested Monday at the Classic Inn. He was charged with inflicting bodily injury on a spouse or cohabitant. Bail is set at $25,000. Theft A brown 1990 Honda Accord, license no. 2UJH702, was reported stolen between Dec. 23 and Dec. 25 from the area near Circle K. Vandalism • A woman in the 2300 phones of drug defendants without a warrant. The Ohio Supreme Court also found in 2009 that police did not have that right. California Deputy Attorney General Victoria Wilson, who represented the prosecution in the case decided Monday, told the newspaper the split opinions in California and Ohio could lead the U.S. Supreme Court to weigh in on the cell phone issue. The California Supreme Court decided the loss of privacy upon arrest extends beyond the arrestee’s body to include personal property. Authorities can not only seize items but also can open and examine what they find, the ruling said. block of Neva Avenue in Corning reported the windshield was broken out of her husband’s 1972 Ford Truck Sunday night.
