Meganumber: 25. $ How to pay for kids' activities Dear Mary: What is the right thing to do when you honestly cannot afford to put your kids in sports -- for example, Little League -- but you know it is such a good thing for them physically and socially? -- Peggy, Louisiana Dear Peggy: The right thing is to live within your means and not go into debt. That's the underlying principle that should guide all financial deci- sions. I'd start looking for reasonable alternatives. Does your parks and recreation department offer organized sports? What about the Y or a local church? Perhaps the local sports league offers reduced fees in exchange for parents working the snack bar or volunteering in another capacity. Call the league office direct- ly and ask. If there are other parents in the same situation, perhaps you could organize a neighborhood league of some kind. If your kids really want to play as much as you want them to, get them into a serious savings program now so they can pay for their own fees next season. Dear Mary: My husband insists that the do-it-yourself will we cre- ated 25 years ago, when our eldest was an infant and we lived in another state, is suffi- cient. I do not! How do we go about finding a com- petent lawyer to create a simple will? I've asked friends for recommenda- tions, but nothing has come of that. Also, what should a basic will cover? I need the peace of mind that comes from having our affairs in order. -- N.W., Arizona Dear N.W.: Every adult needs a will that is updated frequently and compliant with the laws of the state in which that person main- tains permanent residence. I cannot stress enough how important this is. To die intestate (without a will or with a will that is not lawful for any number of reasons) is to leave a big fat mess for one's survivors. Furthermore, you run the risk of seeing that the assets Recent County Jail Commitments: • Jennifer Marie Lopez was sentenced to 90 days in Tehama County Jail for possession of ammunition. Lopez was originally granted formal probation. She violated her probation when she tested positive for methamphetamine. • Tonya Lynn Ledford was sentenced to 90 days in Tehama County Jail for possession of a controlled sub- stance. An officer observed Ledford sitting in the passenger seat of a vehicle parked alongside the road. Upon con- tacting Ledford the officer noticed the wires on the steering column may have been tampered with. The officer proceeded to conduct a search of Ledford’s purse and located several pill bottles with the names scratched off in which Ledford was unable to provide a prescription. Recent Proposition 36 Commitments: Note: All cases wherein a defendant is sentenced per the terms of Proposition 36 are not at the request of the Tehama County District Attorney’s Office. Per the requirements of Proposition 36, a defendant who possesses drugs cannot be sentenced to confinement time in jail or prison. Instead, the court must place defendant on probation and require drug treatment alone. Per the requirements of Proposition 36, only upon a third drug related probation violation may the court impose confinement time. In the event the defendant violates a non-drug related term of proba- tion the court may then elect to sentence defendant to Police reports The following informa- tion is compiled from Red Bluff Police Department, Tehama County Sheriff’s Department, Corning Police Department and California Highway Patrol.

A will simply states to whom you wish to leave your earthly goods. It does not preclude probate, but it allows the state to know your wishes as to the disposition of your assets. A family trust, on the other hand, is more extensive but does not take the place of a will. It is a doc- ument that is created to accompany one's will. Drawing up a will is one of the simplest jobs that an attorney does for a client. Call the Chamber of Com- merce in your city to get a recommendation for an attorney who specializes in wills and trusts. If you absolutely cannot convince your husband that his will is so out of date that it is likely worthless and he needs to see an attorney, consider the services of the self-help website LegalZoom. For as little as $69 each, you can get up- to-date wills that comply with the laws in your state. COURT ROUND-UP jail or prison. The Tehama County District Attorney’s Office con- tends that each criminal case is unique and that in cer- tain, specific, cases a defendant should be sentenced to a combination of drug treatment and jail time. We fur- ther contend that in other specific cases where a defen- dant has an extensive criminal record and/or a history of non-compliance with either previous grants of pro- bation or previous grants of drug treatment, a state prison sentence should properly be imposed. • Jimmy Michael Hames was sentenced to Prop. 36 probation for possession of a controlled substance.
