Arrests • Nathaniel Williams, 39, of Red Bluff was arrested Tuesday in the 900 block of Aloha Street. Officers respond- ed to the address when a caller reported receiving a text message from her friend who said she'd been in a physical alter- cation with her boyfriend. Williams was charged with inflicting corporal injury on a spouse or cohabitant and making false checks. Bail was set at $65,000. • Following a report of about 10 people in a physical fight on the back deck of the River- side Bar & Grill Tuesday night, officers arrested Daniel Warren Mangels, 27, of Shasta Lake City. He was charged with misdemeanor battery.

The vehicle was turned over to a licensed passenger. • Richard Joseph Car- son Jr., 22, of Red Bluff was arrested Tuesday after deputies stopped him on a bike at Sale Lane and Belle Mill Road. He had outstand- ing warrants out of Shas- ta County charging him with two counts of pro- bation violations and one failure to appear on a misdemeanor charge. Deputies also cited him for a possession of mari- juana. Bail was set at $30,000. Dog bite • A baby was taken to St. Elizabeth Community Hospital Tuesday by the child's mother after get- ting bitten by a dog in River Park. The dog was kept tied up by the basket- ball courts at the park. Officers informed the dog's caretaker of quaran- tine requirements. Fast, furious • Sheriff's deputies were called out to help California Highway Patrol officers catch some 20 vehicles reportedly racing Tuesday evening on Simpson Road at Raw- son Road in the Corning area. At least five people were contacted. No fur- ther information was available.

The person then slapped the man in the face three times. The man declined to press charges. • An inmate at Tehama County Jail suffered cuts to his forehead during an assault at around 2 a.m. Tuesday.

I'm considering buying gold. Or should I do some- thing else? -- Karen, email Dear Karen: As I write, $500 would buy about one- third of an ounce of gold (the price changes daily). Practically speaking, gold is not available in such a small amount, which puts it out of your reach at this time. A more practical solution for you (and what I would do if I were you) may be to purchase silver, instead. At this time, silver is about $33 per ounce, which is the spot price. At a local coin shop in your city, your $500 would buy about 15 1-ounce silver coins (U.S. sil- ver dollars or silver rounds, which are .999 pure silver) at spot, plus the coin shop owner mark-up for profit. Silver, like gold, has proven that it retains its value. And if you need the money later, you can easily sell (or cash in) silver dollars or rounds to a local coin shop. Let me explain: If you would have purchased one U.S. silver dollar in 1963, it would have cost you one dollar bill. Today, you need 33 dollar bills to buy that very same silver dollar. It's not that the silver became more valu- able, it's that the dollar bills have lost their value. We have every reason to believe that silver will continue to increase in cost, which of course is just another way of saying that the U.S. dol- lar will continue to slide. You can also pur- chase .9999 pure silver bullion by the ounce online. I can recom- mend Great Panther Silver Mine as rep- utable — GreatPan- ther.com. Or go to www.USMint.com to learn more. But hurry. While the price of sil- ver is holding steady, experts believe it will continue to climb in 2012. detergent, using the shortest wash cycle. Never allow darks to soak. Another trick is to add about half a cup of table salt to the wash cycle the first time you wash new dark-colored items. Mary Hunt Dear Mary: I wear a lot of dark clothing. Woolite makes a detergent for dark fabrics, but it's two to three times the cost of regular deter- gent. Is there a less expensive detergent to use that won't fade dark clothing? -- Dee, New Jer- sey Dear Dee: Soap and water are the enemy of dark-colored wash- able fabrics. They leach out the color and send it down the drain. You don't need pricey products to combat this problem. Simply wash your darks in cool water with the minimum amount of Everyday Cheapskate Experts tell us that salt sets the color. It's diffi- cult to measure the results, but it can't hurt.
